Note that this was Laurel and Hardy's first movie for MGM, and for the first time, they were not "Stan" and "Ollie", but were instead named "Big Goofy" and "Little Goofy". Also, they had their heads shaved for this movie! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that ANY first release U.S. movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned three stills and a lobby card from this movie, and NO other first release U.S. movie paper, until we received this still! Note that this is one of eight wonderful Laurel & Hardy stills from the late 1920s and early 1930s that we were consigned. Each comes from the same collection that contained the rare Gary Cooper stills from the same time period that we auctioned in our last set of auctions. Most of these stills have "PROPERTY OF THE B J NICKELODEON", which was apparently a theater that saved many stills from movies they showed in the late 1920s to the mid 1930s, which accounts for them being in such excellent condition. The collection was purchased by celebrity Johnny Crawford many years ago. Mr. Crawford first came to fame as the son in the TV series "The Rifleman" and later became a band leader loved movies, and early on he collected many stills and lobby cards. These rare early Laurel & Hardy stills were consigned to us from his collection! Also note that this still has been trimmed and it now measures 7 1/2" x 9 3/4" [19 x 25 cm]. Condition: very good. The blank borders were slightly trimmed, but otherwise, the still is in excellent condition! Learn More about condition grades
