WELL, HERE'S ANOTHER FINE BOOK YOU'VE GOTTEN ME INTO!

The duo of Stan Laurel & Oliver Hardy were the most beloved of the classic comedy teams in film history. Promotional Pandemonium Book Two Short Subjects & 1940s Features picks up where the first volume left off, covering the Boys silent and sound short subjects at the Hal Roach Studios and their later features for Fox and MGM.The book takes a colorful visual journey through the ways in which the films and the team were sold to American audiences through the movie posters, lobby cards, publicity stills, sheet music and cross-promotions at the time. We also cover the compilation films of Robert Youngson, their work on stage, and retail merchandise in more than 850 rare and riveting images, most of which haven't been in print for decades.
