In Colpo di stato he have an important role as general di Lorenzo, and since they try to use look a like to famous politician you can see that in this case they made a very good choice.

Awful quality but this is Giuseppe as party guest in Io e lui (1973)

Here on the sofà
giuseppeioe.png
giuseppeio1.png

And as one of the many generici in the resturant in Paolo Barca maestro elementare praticamente nudista (1974)
giuseppepaolobarca.png

Also i can see that Giuseppe is credited in another Salce movies La cuccagna (1962) and i think i have found him again as a military man in a little speaking role. Off course he is a little younger, but this was 7 years before Colpo di stato, and from the pshycic (noise, chin and his monocle) im quite sure is him.

Giuseppe often wears also a pair of glasses, which makes him a little older. Here in La bambolona (1968) with Domenico Ravenna.

To notice he have a little white beard, cut in the same way he have in his 1976's movies. In Maestro di violino (1976)

And very old in Le braghe del padrone (1978), one of his last movies so far as member of the board.

And for the first time i found Giuseppe in a fotoromanzo, and he is credited!
Here in Superflash (if you found them, be careful because the 90 percent of the casts are made of generici and they have good cast list)
