              <h1>The Three Stooges were an American vaudeville and comedy team active from 1922 until 1970, best remembered for their 190 short-subject films by Columbia Pictures. Their hallmark styles were physical, farce, and slapstick comedy also a mainstay of the Newsreel Theatrettes around the world..</h1>
            
              <p>Six total Stooges appeared over the act’s run (with only three active at any given time); Moe Howard (born Moses Horwitz) and Larry Fine (born Louis Feinberg) were mainstays throughout the ensemble’s nearly 50-year run, while the “third stooge” was played in turn by Shemp Howard (born Samuel Horwitz), Curly Howard (born Jerome Horwitz), Shemp Howard again, Joe Besser, and “Curly Joe” DeRita (born Joseph Wardell).</p>

  • <p>For my buddy saps… night view of the Fantasy with recently refurbished and recharged neon tubing around the main marquee and the vertical sign. The attraction boards are so bright that it is hard to get a decent enough exposure to appreciate the neon colors without whiting out the films being advertised. This and the pics that follow will have to do for now.</p>
