The Three Stooges Collection is a series of DVD collections of theatrical short subjects produced by Columbia Pictures starring American slapstick comedy team The Three Stooges. Each volume is a two disc set, and covers a three-year interval, with the exception of Volume Eight, which is a three disc set and covers the last five years at Columbia. The series was first made available by Sony Pictures Home Entertainment in October 2007, and marked the first time the comedy team's shorts were released on DVD in chronological order. In addition, every film was remastered in high definition, another first for the comedy team's body of celluloid works.[1] Volume Seven: 1952 - 1954 was released on November 10, 2009, and includes a pair of 3-D glasses to view the two 3-D entries in the series, Spooks! and Pardon My Backfire. On June 1, 2010, the final three-disc set was released, which included the final 16 shorts with Shemp and all 16 shorts with Joe Besser.
The total running time of all 190 films on all 17 discs is about 53½ hours.
