- Bond played "Butch" in the "Our Gang" comedies. He and Carl "Alfalfa" Switzer (who played antagonists onscreen), were the best of friends in real life, off-camera.
- Good friends with actors Mickey Rooney, and Dean Stockwell from his MGM days as a child actor.
- Bond's wife Polly Bond (aka Polly Ellis), a former model and Miss California, turned down the role of "Miss Kitty" on La ley del revólver (1955).
- Bond played Jimmy Olsen in the first live-action Superman movies: El supermán (1948) and Superman contra el hombre atómico (1950), both chapter serials. But he turned down the role of Olsen in the TV series, Adventures of Superman (1952), starring George Reeves.
- The monument that stood at 1716 North Vine Street, commemorating the first movie made in Hollywood, made by Bonds company, the 'American Mutoscope & Biograph Co. [us]'. was stolen April, 2005. Bond felt because of the monument's size, it had to have been an "Inside Job". He was so upset, he swore that the company would never shoot any project in the district of Hollywood.
- I loved the business but as an actor you wait for your agent to call. If you work two or three months out of the year, you are real lucky.
- The Hollywood I grew up in used to be a wonderful and magical place, with great folks. Now it is somewhere I would never want to be.
- "If I died tomorrow, I experienced so many wonderful things, and met so many great people, and I lived in a great time in Hollywood... I was very fortunate, I had a great and full life".
- My creed was always this from Yankee Doodle Dandy, I've been in this business a long time and I've never met a performer who, in the long run, wouldn't rather be a great guy than a great actor.
