"Vela hijo's Twin"

"Vela hijo's Twin" is an unidentified background actor, active in Spanish films at least from the late 1950's to the early 1970's.
He came to my attention while searching for Aníbal Vela hijo in Los dinamiteros (1964), where he is listed as appearing by IMDb. I did not find Vela, but I did find this actor, who does bear a superficial resemblance to Vela - they have similar facial shapes and hairlines and both often wore thin moustaches - and who had obviously been misidentified as him. Since he caught my attention there I then started spotting him in other films, so here he is.
