An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Key Book Still (Learn More) Dizzy Pilots, the 1943 Jules White World War II (WWII) airplane aviation slapstick comedy short (the Stooges are "The Wrong Brothers", obviously a parody of "The Wright Brothers", and they are trying to invent a new airplane that will get them exempted from the draft; but their plane is a flop, and they are drafted, and they have constant run ins with their tough drill sergeant) starring The Three Stooges (Curly Howard, Larry Fine, and Moe Howard; as the Wrong Brothers!), Charles Dorety, Richard Fiske, Judy Malcolm, Bobby Barber, and Charles Dorety. Note that like with many later Stooge shorts, this one reused much footage from the 1940 short "Boobs in Arms", and in fact, the tough drill sergeant, played by Richard Fiske, only appeared in the earlier movie, and they made clever use of the archival footage to disguise that fact. Also, note that this was the very first Three Stooges short to have a sound effect when someone's eye was poked! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this still is a key book still, printed on a deluxe heavyweight paper stock. Many studios spent extra money to have their most special photos, the key book stills, either backed with linen or printed on a heavy paper, both of which enhanced their durability. They had an extra 1" at the left or top, with punch holes, because of how they were stored. Key book stills are far more rare than regular stills, which has increased their popularity among collectors, since only a few keybooks were manufactured per film, and a key book still is guaranteed to be authentic. Someone trimmed away the extra 1" from the left of the still. Condition: very good. The left 1" was neatly trimmed off (see above). There are tiny creases down the right blank border and a few faint scuffs scattered in the image area, but they are mostly only noticeable when the still is tilted to the light.
