I can't seem to find three stooges on film..plus missing 3 Abbot and costello digests. 400 Ft MEET the MUMMY and the 200 ft digest "ride em cowboy" and "no indians, please". Question though, Did universal 8 release the two 200 footers as a 400 footer?If not, looking to add to my collection. Thanks, Rob

I have one Three Stooges for purchase, but it's standard 8mm sound, "We Want Our Mummy" 200ft, with Curly. Nice print too. Sorry, I don't have any 400ft. super 8 sounds available at this time.

Robert,

Columbia put out quite a few of "The 3 Stooges" shorts, especially the ones with Curly in, I've had many over the years, so just watch those 2nd hand lists.

Robert,

I'll post a list of the Columbia Three Stooges films out on 8mm in the regular forum section.
I have a second copy of the 200 foot "Ride Em' Cowboy", Super 8mm sound, original box. E-mail me if you're intrested in a trade!

COLUMBIA released 15 of the Stooges in 200' editions (Super and Std 8 Silent), Only two were in Super 8 Sound; WE WANT OUR MUMMY and STUDIO STOOPS (I've seen these in Std 8 Sound also) - The original boxes were in two variations; a generic with Moe and Larry surrounding Curly, and a series of artwork boxes (I prefer the later ones) - If you need a list,let me know - Shorty

Shorty,

Thanks! I posted a list of Stooges films a few days ago in the 8mm Forum section. Take a look and let me know what I've left out!

I find it hard to believe that someone can't find NO INDIANS, PLEASE! This is probably the most common A&C Castle release, if not the most common Super8/8mm film period, with the possible exception of HAVE BADGE WILL CHASE.

Hard to believe? hmmmm
thanks Doug for your help, especially the stooges check list. AWESOME! sent you an email. yrs, rob

I have to agree with Tony, though - right now there are four 8mm buy-it-nows on eBay USA alone - at least one of which is in super-8 format. [Smile]

Nice list Doug, you need only DISORDER IN THE COURT, all else complete, though I think NILES released a 1200' edition of KOOK'S TOUR, I've had the 400' version once - Thanks, Shorty

Shorty,

Thanks! Pretty funny that "Disorder In The Court" is the one I left out, since a horror feature that I shot 20 years ago took advantage of that title falling into public domain. The director must have used at least five minutes from that short in a movie theater scene to pad out the running time!

DISORDER is along-time PD, as well as BRIDELESS GROOM and SING A SONG OF SIX PANTS, I think the former manged to sneak in Super 8 - One area I collect are the Std 8 Silent 200' CASTLE Hopalong Cassidy and the elusive ones are RIDERS OF THE TIMBERLAND, GHOST CANYON ROUND-UP, WIDE OPEN TOWN, HOPPY SETS A TRAP, BATTLE OF THE BUTTES

I have a number of 400' 3 Stooges Columbia prints available. E-mail if interested. Thanks, Dan
