ABOUT THE BOOK:

Collecting Laurel and Hardy is a celebration of the legendary comedy duo of Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy through collectibles and memorabilia. The book combines more than 1,000 full-color photos of artifacts with film history, fun stories, and painstaking research to create a veritable encyclopedia of Laurel and Hardy memorabilia—from Stan’s perpetual desk calendar and Ollie’s Way Out West pants, to rare lobby cards and original scripts, to figurines and games. Collecting Laurel and Hardy takes fans into the whimsical, wonderful, and often-hilarious world of collectibles that celebrate the popular comedic duo.
