Henry Calvin's Laurel and Hardy Mustache
<B>Henry Calvin's Mustache from his "Laurel and Hardy" Appearance with Dick Van Dyke.</B></I> One of the best-remembered episodes of <I>The Dick Van Dyke Show</B></I> was the March 6, 1963 show "The Sam Pomerantz Scandals," in which Van Dyke and Henry Calvin did a remarkable (and heartfelt) impersonation of Laurel and Hardy. (Stan Laurel himself tuned in that night and enjoyed it.) This lot includes Calvin's Oliver Hardy mustache, housed, for whatever reason, in a Howard Johnson's Motor Lodge envelope. The mustache is in its original two pieces,well-preserved, and comes with an 8" x 10" still (in Excellent condition) showing Dick and Henry as Stan and Ollie. A fascinating lot, from an unforgettable night of 1963 television -- and a true curio related to the legend of Laurel and Hardy. <I>From the Henry Calvin Collection.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Small (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
