Question: What country of origin does The Spitfire Grill and Gailard Sartain have in common?
Context: Gailard Sartain (born September 18, 1946) is a former American actor, often playing characters with roots in the South.  He was a regular on the country music variety series "Hee Haw".  His best known role is Chuck in "Ernest Saves Christmas" and "Ernest Goes to Jail" as well as on "Hey Vern, It's Ernest" and "The Outsiders".  He is also an accomplished and successful painter and illustrator. The Benjamin Franklin Z Grill, or simply "Z-Grill", is a 1-cent postage stamp issued by the United States Postal Service in February 1868 depicting Benjamin Franklin.  While stamps of this design were the common 1-cent stamps of the 1860s, the Z-Grill is distinguished by having the so-called "Z" variety of a grill pressed into the stamp, creating tiny indentations in the paper.  Although the 1-cent Z-Grill is generally cited as the rarest and most valuable of all US postage stamps, the 15-cent Lincoln Z-Grill is just as rare and the 10-cent Washington Z-Grill scarcely less so.  All three of these stamps were produced at the same time, along with more common Z-grill versions of the contemporary 2-cent, 3-cent, 5-cent and 12-cent stamps (The earliest known postmarks on Z-grill stamps date from January 1868).  The "Z" pattern, unique among grill templates used by the Post Office because it incises horizontal ridges into the stamp rather than vertical ridges, was replaced within a very short time, for stamps with the D- and E-Grills were already being postmarked in mid-February. Will O' the Wisp is the sixth studio album by Leon Russell.  The album was released in 1975 on Shelter Records.

" which was in production at the same time as this film.  It is the third film to feature the character Ernest P. Worrell, and chronicles Ernest's attempt to find a replacement for an aging Santa Claus.  Unlike the other "Ernest" movies, "Ernest Saves Christmas" is the only one that does not feature a villain.
