Early in the movie, Moe, Larry and Curly-Joe are in their studio introducing the first cartoon of the program. After doing this, they are meet by the producer who summarily states the boys need a new form of animation or they will be sacked. During this whole series of scenes, a television sits in the background displaying the Stooges cartoon that is running. This cartoon is nothing like the New Three Stooges cartoons with the wraparounds made in 1965.

Was this an entire cartoon episode made for this movie, or was it only a few clips just for a prop? If it WAS an entire cartoon, is a copy of this rare thing still in existence? If not, how about just the clips - they would be a nifty thing to see.
The tacks won't come out! Well, they went in ... maybe they're income tacks.

THE THREE STOOGES SCRAPBOOK (1960)
THE THREE STOOGES SCRAPBOOK: The Spain Mutiny (1963)
THE THREE STOOGES SCRAPBOOK (1963)

16mm color prints of both 1963 "shorts" exist. The 10-minute cartoon was shown a couple years ago at the Fan Club Meeting, and another collector's print was shown in DC at last year's Slapsticon.

Thanks, dude ... the toon looked too well made to just be clips for the Orbit movie.    :D
