From the book jacket...

"What can be said about The Three Stooges, the wild and wacky comedy trio, that hasn't already been spoken on hundreds of television news shows, written about in thousands of newspaper articles, thought about by millions of their fans and published in the popular books  Moe Howard and The Three Stooges and The Three Stooges Scrapbook?

The answer is The Three Stooges Book of Scripts... Here is an invaluable memento for the collector of Stooges memorabilia that is totally different from anything published before now. This book presents three actual film scripts, complete with all the dialogue as well as all the 'business' thought up for the trio. The three scripts --- YOU NAZTY SPY!, THREE LITTLE PIGSKINS and MEN IN BLACK [and a bonus chapter featuring the Niagara Falls skit from GENTS WITHOUT CENTS] --- are illustrated with actual frame blowups from the films. Rounding out this unique concept are notes and sidelights about the filming of each script and biographical sketches of the stars, performers, writers, producers, cameramen and editors. It includes the inventive advertising campaigns, a Stooges action flip book and a comic strip of the infamous "Niagara Falls" routine.

This treasure chest of Stoogemania includes hundreds of photographs not printed in other books."
