Get ready for more outrageous antics as The Three Stooges return in this second collection of chronological masterpieces. These 24 shorts, filmed from 1937-1939, are digitally remastered for the highest quality - every sight, gag and knuckle-cracking sound can be seen and heard with the utmost clarity for maximum effect. This period is considered to be when Larry, Moe, and Curly hit their stride and perfected their craft, when all the elements came together perfectly: the writing, directing, pacing, and performances. It's no wonder The Stooges made some of their best films during this period, proving laughter really is the best medicine in such classics as Dizzy Doctors, Saved By The Belle, and Calling All Curs. And audiences agreed - at least most of them did. By now The Stooges were wildly popular and their personal appearances were mobbed, but there were some who thought they were too violent and who over analyzed their eye-poking, pie-throwing behavior.

Echo Park, California in 1935 and 2008

This is the corner of Delta Street and Echo Park Avenue, in Echo Park (Los Angeles, California) looking southwest. Roll your mouse over the image to see Echo Park, California in 1935 and today.

This is where the "beer barrels" scene from the Three Stooges short "Three Little Beers" was filmed. The only clue I had to begin with was the sign on the right that says "Echo Park Drug Co".

Special thank you to The Eastsider for the article "The Day the Three Stooges Barrelled through Echo Park" who solved the mystery! The angle isn't exactly right because I got the modern photo from Google "Streetview".

This particular little bit of nonsense can be found on The Three Stooges Collection Volume 2, 1937-1939, the one with the blue cover, I just checked. Those were some good years!
