An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Swiss Miss, the 1938 John G. Blystone romantic Switzerland screwball comedy ("In a big, lavish, musical super feature"; "Original story by Jean Negulesco and Charles Rogers"; produced by Hal Roach; about two mouse trap salesmen who go broke in Switzerland, and they get jobs in a hotel, and get involved with a chambermaid who is actually a famous opera singer spying on her husband) starring Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy (Laurel and Hardy), Della Lind, Walter Woolf King, Eric Blore, Grete Natzler, Adia Kuznetzoff, and Charles Gemora (as the man in the gorilla suit, in a memorable sequence where Laurel and Hardy are trying to move a piano over a rope bridge). Note that Charles Gemora played gorillas in many movies, likely because he owned a gorilla suit, and could do a somewhat convincing job portraying a gorilla. Just a few years later, Ray 'Crash' Corrigan would also start playing gorillas, and no doubt they competed for roles in every movie requiring a gorilla!
