An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Hammer and Tongs, the 1930 Albert H. Kelley boxing sports melodrama short ("One of the Leather Pushers") starring Kane Richmond, Sam Hardy, Sally Blane, Jack White, and Nora Lane. Note that this was one of a series of many two-reel Universal shorts. It started in 1922 with a series of six of them, each known by the generic title of "The Leather Pushers", and each was a boxing movie, but each was individually titled as follows: #1: Let's Go (1922); #2: Round Two (1922); #3: Payment Through the Nose (1922); #4: A Fool and His Honey (1922); #5: The Taming of the Shrewd (1922); #6: Whipsawed. A second series of six more two-reelers, appropriately titled The New Leather Pushers (1922), followed immediately: #7: Young King Cole (1922); #8: He Raised Kane (1922); #9: The Chickasha Bone Crusher (1923); #10: When Kane Met Abel (1923); #11: Strike Father, Strike Son (1923); #12: Joan of Neward (1923). A third series of six more episodes, still titled The New Leather Pushers (1923), followed: #13: The Wandering Two (1923); #14: The Widower's Mite (1923); #15: Don Coyote (1923); #16: Something for Nothing (1923); #17: Columbia, the Gem and the Ocean (1923); #18: Barnaby's Grudge (1923). A fourth series, still titled The New Leather Pushers (1923), but with Billy Sullivan replacing Reginald Denny in the leading role, followed: #19: That Kid from Madrid (1923); #20: He Loops to Conquer (1924); #21: Girls Will Be Girls (1924); #22: A Tough Tenderfoot (1924); #23: Swing Bad the Sailor (1924); #24: Big Boy Blue (1924). Because the name "The Leather Pushers" is prominent on all the advertising, these are often mistakenly listed as being chapters of a movie called "The Leather Pushers", especially because the producers advertised each movie as "A New Round of" to make a boxing pun! In 1930, Universal revived the series with a movie starring Kane Richmond, and there were a total of ten of these made at that time. In 1940, they tried yet again with Richard Arlen, Andy Devine, and Shemp Howard, but this time there were no sequels NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
