""There's no Laurel and Hardy book like this, and it's terrific, so much fun to browse. Any serious fan has to have it, and even casual fans will discover many happy hours exploring the incredible array of collectibles related to cinema's best-loved comedy team. It's amazing to see items I would have thought long lost to history. There must be a thousand photos, in color, of an incredibly wide range of memorabilia. You will be surprised and delighted. Plus, the text is fun and informative.” -- Richard W. Bann, leading Laurel and Hardy expert and author of The Little Rascals: The Life and Times of Our Gang ""A treasure trove in the truest sense of the word. From nearly every facet of ephemera, this thoughtfully prepared and passionate love letter offers substantial proof that Laurel and Hardy were among the most popular personalities on the planet. A book that every fan will return to again and again."" -- Stan Taffel, film historian, author, and Emmy-winning archivist ""I've collected Laurel and Hardy memorabilia since I was five years old in 1964, but Danny and Bernie have found all sorts of treasures from around the world that I've never seen before! Many of these rarities sell for vast amounts at auction, so having these gorgeous reproductions is a wonderful and much less expensive way to enjoy them. This beautiful book is a valuable keepsake by itself, and it is a must-have for everyone who loves Stan and Ollie."" -- Randy Skretvedt, author of Laurel & Hardy: The Magic Behind the Movies
