THE THREE STOOGES In "All Gummed Up" - 1947

Here's some fun from The Stooges, Shemp is in full bloom in this misadventure where the boys must find a way to save their 'Cut Throat' Drug Store after the owner brings them the news that he's leasing it to another client that will pay him more money for the location...

It's a typical day for the Stooges at their drug store, Larry shows a man a pen and it's .no sale' when the sales pitch backfires, and our little dummy gets a face full o' ink!

Another guy comes in and needs a prescription for his wife. The doctor didn't have any paper to write out the prescription on so he wrote it on the guy's shirt. Before he leaves, Moe tears the shirt off the guy because they have to file all prescriptions!

The owner comes in and tells the boys that they need to pack everything up because a new shop owner is going to move in. The boys try and help him with a mustard patch on his back, but, Larry gets him one that burns like Hell...

The landlord's wife shows up and he calls her an ugly old bag, and worse!

So, Shemp gets an idea, they should invent an age reversing formula and get the poor lady her youth back, that'll show the old fart!

They mix their ingredients in a fisherman's rubber boot, which explodes a number of times before it settles down.

The landlord's wife is given a spoonful of the mixture, she makes an ugly face but then starts acting like Shemp and making those weird noises including barking!

And, Ba-Bam!! All of a sudden the old man's interested in his wife again!! Like an idiot, he signs the place over to the Stooges and wants a treatment for himself!..

This is just a preliminary procedure!

Moe shoots him up with the concoction, only, that looks like a bit more than a spoonful to me!.. Oh yeah, the Stooges are in charge!

And wouldn't you know it, the old man is now just a kid with a beard. He pulls out a gun and starts shooting, but, trips and falls on his face, then starts crying like a baby!

To celebrate, she bakes a cake for the guys. She asks them to put some marshmallows on the cake and she'll be right back. What else? Shemp grabs bubble gum instead, let the fun begin...

Larry could come up with the best faces, Shemp blows the bubble gum out his ears!! We're back Wednesday with more Dungeon Cargo, just for you!

  1. Oh, this is one of my HUGE (or YUGE!) favorites! :D

    I keep thinking that what I need to schedule here at home is "All Shemp, All the Time!" Nobody gets the belly-laughs from me, quite like he does!*

    *(Except maybe for Sammy Petrillo in Bela Lugosi Meets a Brooklyn Gorilla!)
