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.

Wilshire Boulevard, Los Angeles, in 1936 and 2008

This is Wilshire Boulevard, Los Angeles, California, looking east at about Detroit Avenue (just west of La Brea). Roll your mouse over the image to see Wilshire Boulevard, Los Angeles in 1936 and today.

This scene is from the 1936 Three Stooges short film "False Alarms", in the last few seconds. The building on the far left gave me a clue - it says "La Brea Wilshire Health Center". The only building that seems to still exist now the Samsung Building - the tall one in the distance.The angle isn't exactly right because I got the modern photo from Google "Streetview".

This beautiful view of Wilshire Boulevard can be found on The Three Stooges Collection Volume 2, 1937-1939, the one with the blue cover.
