An original rare UK LOBBY CARD from the 1955 film "Bud ABBOTT and Lou COSTELLO MEET THE KEYSTONE KOPS". Storyline: After the film was completed, Universal-International wanted to rename it 'Abbott and Costello in the Stunt Men', because they did not consider the "Keystone Kops" to be relevant anymore. However, in October 1954, the studio relented and agreed to use the "Keystone Kops" name. Harry and Willie buy the Edison Movie Studio in the year 1912 from Joseph Gorman, a sold confidence trickster. They follow Gorman to Hollywood where, as stunt men, they find him directing movies as Sergei Trumanoff and stealing the studio payroll.
Directed by Charles Lamont. Stars Bud Abbott, Lou Costello, Fred Clark, Mack Sennett, Joe Besser.
