Auction History Result 9t0919 LAUREL-HARDY MURDER CASE 8x10.25 still 1930 scared Stan & Ollie in pajamas by bed, rare! Date Sold 9/28/2021 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) The Laurel-Hardy Murder Case, the 1930 James Parrott crime murder mystery screwball comedy short (produced by Hal Roach; the already cliched plot of a group of people gathered in a spooky house to find out which one will inherit a fortune, and there is a murderer present; the movie is a comic parody of this old plot!) starring Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy (Laurel and Hardy), Frank Austin, Stanley Blystone, Bobby Burns, and Dell Henderson (a man, playing the housekeeper in drag!). This is widely considered to be one of the most enjoyable of the Laurel & Hardy shorts (and one of the ones that holds up best when viewed by present day audiences!). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this is one of six wonderful Laurel & Hardy stills from the late 1920s and early 1930s that we were consigned. Each comes from the same collection that contained eight other great Laurel and Hardy stills we auctioned in our last set of auctions (and the collection also contained the rare Gary Cooper stills from the same time period that we auctioned in some of our recent sets of auctions). Most of these stills have "PROPERTY OF THE B J NICKELODEON", which was apparently a theater that saved many stills from movies they showed in the late 1920s to the mid 1930s, which accounts for them being in such excellent condition. The collection was purchased by celebrity Johnny Crawford many years ago. Mr. Crawford first came to fame as the son in the TV series "The Rifleman" and later became a band leader loved movies, and early on he collected many stills and lobby cards. These rare early Laurel & Hardy stills were consigned to us from his collection! Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
