Stan Laurel Scrapbooks at LC
Posted: Wed Mar 05, 2014 6:50 pm
As some of you may know, the Library of Congress recently purchased Stan Laurel's scrapbooks from his daughter Lois (Thanks Rob Stone!) Along with Michael Hayde, Jim Kerkhoff, Steve Massa and Ben Model, Rob recently gave us an opportunity to preview these. They will eventually all be scanned and uploaded for all to enjoy. Here are a few choice bits to whet your whistle.
1912 note with self-portrait from Charlie Chaplin to Stan.
Stan and Mae's gag notebook.
Two pages from a French magazine spread on Atoll K. An image gallery and a few stills I've never seen before.
A rather gruesome sketch of Stan and Babe, artist unknown.
A lost short supporting a lost feature.
Us in Nirvana. Pic 1 and pic 2.
