The Lighter Side of Laurel and Hardy

"The Lighter Side of LAUREL & HARDY"

BOOKAZINE 

Released 20th October 2009 and 2010 (Sainsburys).    Exclusive to WH Smith & Sainsburys

 Although it is a potted history of Stan and Babe, from life to death, there are many diversions along the way which take us to new and interesting aspects of the Boys' careers and private lives. Topics include: The Solo Films, Shorts, Features, Forties, and Foreign releases - which ends with a very useful Filmography. Then comes some fantastic Gallery pages showing candid shots, deleted scenes, off-camera shots, and gag-shots.

Refreshingly, there are also some excellent feature articles, covering the UK, US, and European stage tours; plus a section on "Collecting Laurel & Hardy Memorabilia." In the later pages we get more photo-galleries of Stan and Babe at play; with their wives; and in their twilight years. And to round it all off there are four great double-page reprints from 1930 film magazines.

Throughout, the text is punctuated with new information, and side comments, as are the captions, which one must take the time to fully read.

"The Lighter Side of LAUREL & HARDY" is richly laced with almost 300 photos and illustrations, - many of them previously unseen, and all accompanied by informative and often amusing captions. It is a perfect introduction to anyone not too familiar with Laurel & Hardy in print, whilst still containing more than enough new material to satisfy even the most ardent buff. 132 pages.

We have sold out of both the WH SMITH and SAINSBURYS versions.

HOWEVER, I will TRY and get some more, so if you are interested in a copy just email me and I will put you on a waiting list. I will email you when and if I get a few more.
