These 22 digitally remastered shorts from 1952-1954 were made during a tumultuous time for The Three Stooges. First, in 1952 Curly succumbed to the illness brought on by his stroke six years earlier; he was only forty-eight when he died. Shemp had really hit his stride by this time and he is at the top of his game in the new shorts from this period, but budget cutbacks at Columbia forced director Jules White to recycle some old footage, so although the work in this collection is first-rate, one can't help but wonder what could have been done if they'd had the opportunity to develop more new material. Fortunately, this era did leave us with such classics as the Stooges' first 3-D shorts, SPOOKS! (1953) and PARDON MY BACKFIRE (1953) ; SHOT IN THE FRONTIER (1954) a parody of the classic film High Noon ; and Larry's hilarious spoof of Brando in CUCKOO ON A CHOO CHOO (1952). These shorts are all presented as they were projected in the theaters; some in widescreen for the first time since their original release. The Three Stooges Collection Volume 7 shows how the genius of Moe, Larry and Shemp rose above all obstacles and enabled them to be the best at their craft.

Damn Budget cuts! Although past their prime, the boys could still produce laughs but were given little opportunity. The new stories were few and far between and the remakes had very little difference from the originals. To me, comedy relies a lot on the unexpected. As for the quality, I found it OK and did not mind the matting effect on disc 2. What I disliked were the 3D episodes. They don't look good on regular TV and only half the effects come through. The rest of the episode is very fuzzy. The inclusion of the standard version was very smart. Unfortunately,I am not looking forward to the next disc but will buy it just to complete the collection. Thanks to Sony for providing these seven volumes which finally give the guys their do. Rating: 4 (John F. Lewandowski, 2010-01-18) Product reviewed: The Three Stooges Collection, Vol. 7: 1952-1954

Collection 7 Is Great Quality Sony has done it again. The quality and detail of their restoration of the 3 Stooges is excellent. Also, there is a very nice touch of including the two 3-D shorts made with Shemp along with 3-D glasses to enjoy them. Great purchase for 3 Stooges fans everywhere. Rating: 5 (P.

Top-notch! A Christmas gift for my son who was thrilled. This completed his Three Stooges' collection. Rating: 5 (Judy Lesniak, 2009-12-26) Product reviewed: The Three Stooges Collection, Vol. 7: 1952-1954

Shemp to the rescue Vol. 7 of 'The Three Stooges' collection continues with the 'Shemp' years. I've always liked Shemp, and in his own way, I think, is just as funny as his brother, the great 'Curley'! This set contains, probably, the last of the good Shemp's, but I sincerely hope the series continues right through to the final shorts with Joe Besser, who stood in after Shemp's sudden death! With all the current 'hype' about the resurgence of 3D, it would seem a good idea that the two shorts made in that format, are included here, pity they just don't work over TV? With the glasses included in the set, they just come over as 'crap', better enjoyed in the regular 2d format, thankfully, also included here! It may just be that 3D doesn't come across well on TV? I've never seen any that really work on TV? But, that slight 'hiccup' aside, Vol. 7 is still a strong enough entry to warrent good sales! Keep going!
