aka 3 Stooges shorts
all that I have seen are one reel, flat/1.33 (Academy), mono, Columbia pictures, ETS depot, lab. cues, start and end with Columbia logo
Some ETS labels correctly specify "mono"; others erroneously specify "Dolby"
Specific info is as follows:
Hoi Polloi (print #0003) print is a bit splicy and has light scratches; density track with low volume--looks almost clear in many areas (don't be fooled, it's not a silent film)
Who Done It (print #0001) very nice print, complete with fadein/fadeout, with good sound
Grips, Grunts, Groans (print #0003) fair condition, missing last scene and end title, missing opening fadein; good sound
Nurse to Worse (#0002) generally decent, not great; good sound
Dizzy Detectives (shipped in can mislabelled as "Calling all Cures" print #0004) looks like a poor dupe, printed too light; splicy, printed slightly out of frame (adjust framing down); OK sound
Love at First Bite (print #0001) generally decent
What's the Matador (print #0005) decent print, _very_ low sound (I'd suggest not booking this print for that reason)

It's that time of year again:
Hot Scots (print #0001) 1994 print, good condition, complete
Pardon My Scotch (print #0003) low sound, density track, no end title, Agfa print stock
Crash Goes the Hash (print #0006) low sound, short end title and opening title, otherwise OK, Agfa print stock
Flat Foot Stooges (print #0010) good condition, short titles, Agfa print stock
Three Little Sew and Sews (print #0001) 1981 print, poor condition, heat damage, ends mid-scene (and is missing end title)
So Long Mr. Chumps (print #0018) 1983 print, nice condition, not plattered until last week; fade-ins and fade-outs are complete
Movie Maniacs (print #0018) density track, picture a bit dark, otherwise OK

Update for this year:
Horse Collars #0004 - density track, good condition, missing part of fadein and fadeout - Agfa stock
Three Little Beers #0002 - fair condition, dirty/splicy, missing part of final scene, then splice to "The End" title, missing opening fadein and closing fadeout - Agfa stock
False Alarms #0001 - printed dark, but otherwise in good condition, missing part of fadein and fadeout - Agfa stock
Brideless Groom #0001 - 1996 print, Eastman stock, printed a bit dark, good condition, missing end title
Three Little Pigskins #0002 - 1975 print, Eastman stock, density track, missing fadeout at end, minor framing issues throughout (printing problem)
A-Ducking We Will Go #0008 - 1981 print, Eastman stock, nice condition, has complete fadein and fadeout
A-Plumbing We Will Go #0008 - 1981 print, Eastman stock, nice condition, has complete fadein and fadeout
Received but not shown this year:
Cash and Carry #0004 - has both Eastman (1943 date code) and Agfa positive edge markings, Eastman marking says "NITRATE FILM" and therefore we did not run it. It burns but not impressively, but I did not show it, erring on the side of caution.
Ants in Pantry (unknown print number, probably 0002 or 0004) - decent condition until last 100' or so, where there is severe perf damage. [ 01-12-2008, 08:39 AM: Message edited by: Scott Norwood ]
