To go with the autograph, from a few days ago, the 1000 Laughs Promotional Piece.

Quite rare, too bad about the tape damage but it's only the second one I've ever seen for sale, can't be too particular sometimes.

    Interesting.

    I think of "Brewster's Millions" as a Richard Pryor film, and a good one. I didn't realize it was a remake, but I should have known.

    I'm a bit too young for Fatty Arbuckle, but I read a book about the "murder" case once. Sounds like Fatty might have gotten a bum rap.

    Arbuckle had quite a life. One thing I still moan about missing on ebay was his 1909 Vaudeville makeup chest....with a letter from his wife Minta Durfee and a cast photo. All 100% authentic. Still think about how I missed that...

    He was amazingly wealthy in the day. Search the net and take a look at his House. wow. Moviewise, if you ever get the chance to see "Leap Year", with the new musical score, which they run on TNT...it is fantastic. Paramount never officially released the film into theaters, something they should do NOW! It was made in 1921, the same year as his legal troubles.

    The day he signed the contract with Paramount to do a run of feature films, he died in his sleep.
