Still More Connie
Here's a lobby card for the 1937 Hal Roach Studios-produced and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer-released comedy classic "Topper," starring Cary Grant, Constance Bennett, and Roland Young in the title role of the befuddled Cosmo Topper.

Gee Ollie, Maybe You Should Have Asked Your Wife, First
From the Hal Roach Studios in 1932 (released theatrically by Metro Goldwyn Mayer), here are Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy in "Their First Mistake."
In this one, Mrs. Hardy is irate that her husband Oliver is spending more time with his buddy, Stan. Ollie tries to adopt a baby, so that the Missus would be occupied while he continues carousing with Stanley. Thing don't turn out too well for Ollie, as it turns out.
Co-starring Mae Busch and Billy Gilbert, this short, with James Greene as recording engineer, was photographed by Art Lloyd, edited by Richard Currier, and directed by George Stevens (who makes an on-camera cameo as the boys' neighbor).
Enjoy!
