DVD 1: CLASSIC SHORTS
Disorder in the Court (1936) Larry, Moe, and Shemp.
This classic short features the iconic slapstick comedy trio Larry, Moe, and Shemp engaging in courtroom chaos. The plot revolves around a murder trial where the Stooges act as key witnesses, leading to a series of hilarious misunderstandings and physical comedy. Known for its fast-paced humor and memorable gags, Disorder in the Court is often considered one of the best Stooge shorts and showcases their talent for blending verbal wit with physical slapstick.
Malice in the Palace (1949) Larry, Moe, and Shemp.
Set in a luxurious Middle Eastern palace, Malice in the Palace features the Stooges in an adventurous escapade involving a hidden treasure and a scheming villain. The short is notable for its inventive physical comedy, including iconic pie-throwing scenes and chase sequences. The trio’s dynamics shine as they work together to outsmart their adversaries, combining slapstick with elements of mystery and action.
Additional Details about Classic Shorts:
Historical Context: These shorts were produced during the golden age of American slapstick comedy, showcasing the unique chemistry of the Stooges before and after Curly Howard’s departure.
Character Dynamics: The inclusion of Shemp Howard brought a different energy compared to Curly, with a slightly more verbal and scheming personality, adding variety to the trio’s performances.

Cultural Impact: These films contributed significantly to popularizing slapstick comedy and influenced numerous comedians and filmmakers in later decades.
DVD 2: SWING PARADE
Brideless Groom (1947) Larry, Moe, and Shemp.
In Brideless Groom, the Stooges find themselves in a race against time as Larry tries to marry to inherit a fortune before midnight. The short is famous for its rapid-fire comedy and an appearance by the talented singer and actress Dorothy Appleby. It features classic Stooge elements such as mistaken identities, chaotic chases, and the trademark eye-pokes and slaps that define their style.
Sing a Song of Six Pants (1940) Larry, Moe, and Shemp.

WHAT YOU GET:
This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.
IMAGES:
All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.
COMPATIBILITY:
Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.
PLATFORM:
Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.
64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.
Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.
MEDIA FORMAT:
Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:
Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has
already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.
