$128 USD Offers ConsideredMGM 1940's Laurel & Hardy Mechanical Cardboard Figures
Collectibles:Memorabilia
This is a great piece of movie memorabilia. It is 6 1/2 inches tall with scissor movements, this interesting mechanical representation shows the classic comedy duo of Laurel and Hardy and when legs are moved heads alternately bob up and down while arms tip bowler hats. I think it has to be from around the 1940's as Laurel and Hardy where with MGM during 1941-1944 only. I suppose the cardboard figure could be older and MGM just put there name on it later.. The piece has the artist name on the ...
