This
card is Stan Laurel from the 2009 Breygent Movie Posters release. When I was
growing up I was interested in old-school slapstick comedy, I went searching for
everything about The Little Rascals, Charlie Chaplin, The Three Stooges, Laurel
& Hardy and Abbott and Costello. Probably not the standard shows a kid
growing up in the late 70s-early 80s would watch but I loved everything about those
black and white comedies.
There
is not a large collecting base for cards of these comedians, besides The Three
Stooges, so I was excited to come across this Laurel sketch card for an amazing
price. I am not certain but I would guess that Brian also did a Oliver Hardy
sketch to go with this one and if he did I would be happy to add it to my
collection too.
That's very cool! You just cost me 8 bucks. Saw that the base set includes Marx Bros posters. Had to order a set.
ReplyDeleteHm, this was a really fun handful of sets they put out, but the sketches were very... hit-or-miss? That's probably just about the best one I've seen. Glad you got a good deal on it.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sketch! I've tried to add a few of his older Star Wars sketches to my collection back in the day... but they sold for a pretty penny.
