Auction History Result 9j944 THREE STOOGES Aust daybill 1950s great art of Moe, Larry & Shemp but switched credits, rare! Date Sold 10/1/2019 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Australian Daybill Movie Poster (db; measures 13 1/2" x 29 3/4" [34 x 76 cm]) (Learn More) The Three Stooges are one the most loved comedy teams of all-time! They were famous for their violent slapstick comedy and their silly jokes! The Three Stooges went through several line-up changes which included Moe Howard, Curly (Jerry Howard), Larry Fine, Shemp Howard, Joe DeRita (more commonly known as Curly-Joe), and Joe Besser! Of course, any Stooge fan knows that they started in vaudeville with Moe Howard and Shemp Howard (brothers) and Larry Fine. When they switched to movies, Shemp dropped out of the act and their brother Jerry (Curly) took his place. Decades later, when Curly became sick, Shemp took his place, and later, Joe DeRita and Joe Besser took Shemp's place. It is also quite humorous that the Stooges were originally part of Ted Healy's act (billed as "Ted Healy and His Stooges"). When they started having success, they asked for a raise, and Healy fired them and replaced them with new "stooges", thinking that HE was the star, but things didn't work out the way he expected! If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is a rare daybill. We have only auctioned two and the last time was in 2005! Note also that this daybill is a "stock" poster, with a blank area at the bottom where a theater could either write in the title of the specific Three Stooges movie they were showing, or could glue on or tape on a paper snipe. This meant they could re-use the poster each time they showed a different Three Stooges movie. Also note that the credits under the image are switched for Shemp and Larry! Condition: very good. The daybill is in in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
