LAUREL & HARDY - the British Tours

Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy are, undoubtedly, the most famous screen comedy double-act of all time. Between them they made hundreds of films, most of which are available to view. But their comedy work wasn't solely in films. Laurel spent several years working on the British variety stage, followed by several more touring the United States in Vaudeville. Babe Hardy too had spells on the American stage early on in his career, as a singer.
And then, when Laurel and Hardy's screen career was over, Laurel returned to the British Variety stage, and took with him his American partner, Oliver Hardy. And so what of the accounts of all the years these comic geniuses spent on stage? Where are they? Laurel & Hardy films have spawned hundreds of books and thousands of magazine articles, but written work on their stage shows wouldn't fill one magazine, much less a book. Not, that it is, until along came the two books pictured below.
