Very scarce Three Stooges script for "Corny Casanovas", personally owned by Moe Howard. Howard starred in the farce with Shemp Howard and Larry Fine. Released in 1952, the short comedy here bears the working title, "One Won" which is marked as the "Temporary Title" on the first page. The Stooges play three men all engaged to the same woman, unbeknownst to each other and to hilarious effect. Screenplay opens with the trio cleaning house in iconic slapstick fashion and commenting on their upcoming nuptials. This is the final draft of the screenplay, labeled Columbia Pictures' Production #4178. Cover is dated 16 October 1951 and manuscript is bound with a pair of brads. Measures approximately 8.5" x 11". Toning to leaves, creasing to cover and some rusting to brads, else near fine. With a COA from Moe's daughter Joan Howard Maurer.
