Curly's health was so bad that he and Larry had to swap roles, of all the post stroke era Curly shorts this was the one where he appeared the sickliest. #MeTVThreeStooges #ThreeLoanWolves
Harold Tiny Brauer's first co-starring appearance with the Stooges. Brauer and Emil Sitka are the only supporting actors to work with all six Stooges. #MeTVThreeStooges #ThreeLoanWolves

I don’t like this one. Moe’s being so mean to Larry + Curly. ☹️

The “medicine“ the customer referred to was a reference to Prohibition. Drug stores were allowed to sell some items that contained alcohol as “medicinal”. Soda fountains also started appearing in drugstores during Prohibition.
Larry's toast at the drugstore (as the Stooges sample their "Breath of Heather" scotch with their new partner) is Yiddish for "drop dead" ("Ver derharget!"). #MeTVThreeStooges #PardonMyScotch
Moe actually broke some of his ribs AND suffered a concussion filming the scene in which Curly accidentally saws through the table Moe is standing on, causing it to collapse. #MeTVThreeStooges #PardonMyScotch
Even though she didn't have a speaking part, this was the series debut for longtime Stooges supporting player Symona Boniface. #MeTVThreeStooges #PardonMyScotch
This short was filmed just months after the 21st Amendment, which ended Prohibition. This is integral to the storyline, with the druggist frantically attempting to lay in a stock of liquor in anticipation of the end of Prohibition. #MeTVThreeStooges #PardonMyScotch
