Yet another benefit to “31 Days of Oscar” moving along is the return of regular silent features on TCM Sunday nights. Tonight, TCM brings us two featuring Harold Lloyd, 1924’s Girl Shy (80 minutes) at midnight EST, followed by 23 minute short An Eastern Westerner (1920).
Girl Shy and An Eastern Westerner both have multiple pages of user comments over on the IMDb, check them out for more info. Lloyd himself is profiled on things-and-other-stuff.com in an old entry from Ken’s Comedy Corner.
Several collectible images featuring Harold Lloyd are shown below with each item identified by issue or type immediately below the image itself. If any of the pictured collectibles have an associated Photo Identification Guide on things-and-other-stuff.com you just need to click the image to open a new window and check out the entire Guide.
