This is great News! I'm still happy about Shemp's Columbia shorts making it to DVD earlier this year; the Vitaphones I never thought would get there. Arbuckle is gravy, and will doubtless have me revisiting Paul's set. I guess 2012 was the year of Shemp.

Although the film sadly ends before we see it happen, George Jessel anticipates that Shemp is going to beat the living daylights out of him in RAMBLING 'ROUND RADIO ROW.
