Description

This composite resin figurine group is attributed to The Academy Collection, depicting the legendary comedy duo Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy in naval uniforms. The scene, likely inspired by their 1928 short film Two Tars, features the pair seated on a black slatted bench. Oliver Hardy is portrayed with a jovial expression, arms around two female companions dressed in 1920s-style attire, while a characteristically melancholic Stan Laurel sits to the left. The piece is constructed from cast resin and finished with hand-applied paint in a palette of navy blue, white, and cream with green highlights. This type of cinematic memorabilia was popularised in the late 20th century as decorative giftware. No manufacturer marks are present on the exterior surfaces. Dimensions: approximately 24cm width, 19cm height, 13cm depth.
