Production notes

The first half of Loose Loot consists of footage recycled from Hold That Lion!.

Johnny Kascier’s playing of Napoleon in the painting was similar to I'll Never Heil Again with Curly Howard. The Three Stooges are fighting over a turkey, they throw it and Napoleon steals the turkey and runs away.

Icabod Slipp's name appears on the door as "I. Slipp." This is a semantic parody on the Long Island town of Islip, New York.
