Would I give you a bum STEER?"; "Watch the laughs multiply!"; "This short sure HOGS all the laffs!"). If anyone knows more about this short, please e-mail us and we will post it here. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is a "stock" poster created by Paramount for use by theaters showing their comedy shorts. Theaters would order this poster, which had a large blank area at left. Sometimes the studio would overprint the stock poster with a specific short's title, and sometimes the theaters were sent a series of large paper snipes with the titles of specific entries of the series, so the theater could paste in each snipe as needed, thus getting many posters for the price of one. In the case of this poster, the theater that used the poster was sent a studio-issued snipe for one of the shorts, "From A to Zoo", and they neatly glued that snipe in the blank area.
