Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy (Laurel & Hardy) were one of the greatest comedy teams of all time from the 1920s to the 1940s. While they both had solo work (Hardy was a top star in the 1910s, and Laurel was becoming a star in the mid 1920s, but then they joined forces and became superstars!), they are best remembered as a team, and some of their movies include: Sons of the Desert, The Music Box, Way Out West, Big Business, Helpmates, Tit For Tat, Towed in a Hole, Them Thar Hills, and Liberty. Laurel passed away in 1965 at the age of 74, and Hardy passed away in 1957 at the age of 65. In 2019, a film biography, "Stan & Ollie", starring John C. Reilly and Steve Coogan, was released, and while it did what most film biographies did, which is to play fast and loose with the truth, it was generally very well received and one can only hope it will cause new generations to seek out this classic duo's wonderful movies (both features and shorts)!

Important Added Info: Note that this still has been personally autographed (signed) by BOTH Stan Laurel AND Oliver Hardy! Also note that this is a deluxe still printed on double weight paper stock.

Note that this item was consigned to us by a man who was a major movie memorabilia dealer in the 1970s and 1980s. During that time, he was approached by an elderly man named Sterling H. Bond, who had collected autographs for many years (starting in the early 1930s), and who sold the dealer his entire collection. Bond had tracked down many important Hollywood celebrities and obtained autographed items (often personalized to him), and he also had autographs from celebrities who were not in the film business (including famous politicians!). The dealer was so impressed with this collection that rather than sell it item by item, he began collecting autographs himself, sending celebrities items by Registered Mail which they then autographed and returned to him! He also purchased a few autographed items from top autograph dealers of the 1970s and 1980s. Now, decades later, the dealer consigned these autographed items to us, and we have sold many of them in our previous "all signed" auctions, and this set of auctions contains the last of them. All of these autographed items from this consignor were either obtained by long time collector Sterling H. Bond, or were obtained by this memorabilia dealer, and we feel certain that the autograph on this item is authentic!
