I was bored this past weekend and decided to implement an idea that my brother (https://moronika.com/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=3) suggested many, many years ago - a page showcasing businesses featured in the Stooges shorts. I've gotten pretty good at this sort of thing over the years, so I was able to knock out the database table and coding for the feature over the weekend, and I've added a couple dozen businesses in it so far, with a lot more to come.
You can view the page at: Stooge Businesses -- ThreeStooges.net (https://threestooges.net/business). The link can be found in the site's menu under "More Stooges Info".
I've been utilizing the businesses indexed in The Official Three Stooges Encyclopedia (https://threestooges.net/bibliography/view/29) by Robert Kurson, but I've already noticed that his lists of Stooge-owned and other businesses are not all inclusive, so please feel free to post suggestions of businesses for me to add. At a minimum you should include the business or organisation name and the film(s) it appears in.
PLEASE NOTE: I am focusing on businesses that have a storefront, or office door, or a business card or something displayed in a film so I can make a screen capture of it for the page. (By all means, please feel encouraged to include such a screenshot with your suggestion!) :)
And don't, under any circumstances, suggest adding "Dewey, Cheatum and Howe" (or variants thereof). That was never used in any of the Stooges films. [pie]

I can’t begin to tell you how many times when the normals find out I’m a Stooge fan how, “Dewey, Cheatum and Howe,” get mentioned. [3stooges]
