> In many of the Stooge shorts, Fine did more reacting than acting, staying in the background and serving as the voice of reason in contrast to the zany antics of Moe and Curly. He was easily recognized by his hairdo, bald on top with lots of thick, bushy, curly hair around the sides and back for which Moe would often call him “Porcupine”
LOL porcupine tie in, excellent!
Off-topic of 1400 old oil lamps and porcupines but on topic for discoveries and Three Stooges...
Did you ever see Shemp’s lost surrealist film?
