BRATS Set Thelma Todd Photos

BRATS was a Laurel and Hardy comedy where they played their own children in scaled-up sets designed to make them look little.

 Some gag shots of Thelma Todd were also taken on one of the same sets.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 The "water" in this picture was actually drawn in afterwards.

 

 

 

 

"Cinema Junction" happened to be on this picture when I got it.

Here we have a look behind the scenes of many Laurel and Hardy films. Thelma Todd appears in a publicity shot made on the set of BRATS, which was built oversize so as to make Laurel and Hardy ( or in this case Thelma Todd ) look small by comparison. The same trick was used in the same period in THE DEVIL DOLL and it would be used again in later films.

Laurel and Hardy as the titular BRATS.

And here's little Thelma in the same set.
