A Gem of a Jam

A Gem of a Jam is the 76th short subject starring American slapstick comedy team the Three Stooges. The trio made a total of 190 shorts for Columbia Pictures between 1934 and 1959.

Outside, a crook is shot in the arm while trying to make a getaway after a robbery. The crooks bring their hurt leader John Tyrrell up to the Stooges, thinking the doctors office is open for business. The boys play doctor and promptly anesthetize the wounded crook with a rubber mallet. Then, the wounded crook slides off the gurney and out the window while the Stooges back are turned. As luck would have it, the crook lands right into a police car waiting below at street level. The other crooks flee when they see the Stooges mangle the situation, only to be captured by the policemen.The trio, meanwhile, take cover in a rather spooky storage area, replete with a huge jackinthebox, and a scared night watchman Dudley Dickerson. Curly gets so spooked that he stumbles into a trough filled with plaster, making him virtually immobile. As a consequence, the poor, ghostlylooking Stooge ends up scaring all involved. ........
