Harold Lloyd -- No Limit of Una-Lloyd Joy! -- June 15, 2024

Casper Daily Tribune, 13-June-1924

I like this pair of ads for Harold Lloyd's Girl Shy that appeared in the Casper Daily Tribune. Here we see Harold hanging onto the pole of a trolley car during the movie's great chase. 

"Lloyd-laughs galore!
Chills and thrills by the score!
And love? See the world's
play-boy step! Such pep!
No limit of Una-Lloyd joy!"


It took me a minute to see that "Una-Lloyd joy!" was a play on "unalloyed joy." I must be getting slow in my old age.

"Actually, he feared
the pretty girls --
But in his dreams?
Oh, B-B-Boy!
What a Romeo"

"Oh Boy! It's Funny."

"Conspicuous in his support is pretty Jobyna Ralston ... Jobyna brings to the screen a distinctive type of beauty, young, dainty and refreshing."

Harold's next movie was released as Hot Water. That is a better title than Hubby

Before he developed "The Glass Character," Harold Lloyd played Lonesome Luke. Bebe Daniels was his leading lady in most of the Luke shorts.

Snub Pollard supported Harold in the Lonesome Luke shorts. Bebe is not involved in this shot.

Harold consults with Hal Roach, who produced all of his short films.
