Blotto, the 1930 Laurel & Hardy comedy, ran on TCM last night (both the US release and the extended Spanish-language version).
Not quite halfway through the movie, Stan's wife goes to a sporting-goods store to buy a shotgun. In the background can be seen
a pictorial ad for tennis rackets, a box of balls for some undetermined sport, and, most prominently, a sign at the upper right of the shot that reads
BABE RUTH
Major League xxxxxx xxx Xxxxxxx
