i noticed that in Treasure Island he wears one earring in one ear (not sure which one) and in Long John Silver he wears one in the other ear. In any close up shots can anyone see if both of his ears were pierced? Or were either of them even pierced?

I don't know for sure, but I would tend to doubt that his ears were pierced. I don't think that was considered a very proper thing to do in his day as an actor. Hollywood (and British Cinema) was very strict about the impression that their actors/actresses gave during that time. It was not like today, where 'almost' anything is accepted.

ok i didn't think they were becuase like you said it wasn't really the "thing" to do, only women did.
because in TI and LJS his earring is in the other ear and that's what got me thinking.
