In "From Rugs to Riches," the Three Stooges find themselves in a whirlwind adventure after trading a prized oriental carpet for a tattered old rug they’re told is a genuine antique Persian. Fired from their job and eating their last meal on the rug, Curly-Joe accidentally reads words on it that send them soaring to a desert palace where a princess is imprisoned in a giant jar. With Larry trapped in her place, the boys must think fast to rescue her—no easy task when the rug’s magic is just beginning to reveal its secrets. Written by Jerry Belson and Cecil Beard, and illustrated by Joe Messerli with inks by the same, this 1965 Western Comics gem delivers classic slapstick with a fantastical twist.
