Card No. 20 1942 "Sock-A-Bye Baby"
The baby taken in by the Stooges is not the kidnapped Collins baby the boys read about in the newspaper. That is the boys' mistaken assumption, which sets up the film's chase scene with the police. Little Jimmy's last name (as well as his parents') is never revealed.
Card No. 64 1958 "Oil's Well That Ends Well"
In a cost-saving measure, the cow milking scene was filmed under HORSING AROUND's budget, but the scene was not taken from that film. Thanks to production #'s on still photos, there are evidenced cases of Jules White charging a few of the final shorts' production costs off to other shorts to stay on budget.
