Aldo Cecconi was a stocky small-part actor and stuntman active in Italian films from at least the start of the 1960's until the mid-1970's.
Aldo began his career as a stuntman in peplum and historical films and has several master of arms credits, with his earliest known role currently being from 1959. By the mid-60's he was getting small credited character roles in eurospies and westerns, sometimes under the pseudonym "Jim Clay". In the 70's he was back to smaller, often-uncredited, roles. His career ends abruptly in 1976.
No biographical details are currently known.
I have found a few undocumented stunt appearances in peplums and I am sure there will be still more to be discovered. I think it is also highly likely that there will also be some 50's roles to be found since he was obviously already in his late 30's or 40's when his known career began.
