[edit] Plot
The Stooges wish to marry their sweethearts, but are forbidden by Old King Cole (Vernon Dent) until Princess Alicia (Virginia Hunter) weds Prince Valiant "when the flowers bloom in the Spring." Unfortunately, evil magician Murgittroyd (Philip Van Zandt) has his own plans to marry Alicia, and promptly abducts her. The Stooges, of course, do their best to foil his plot.
[edit] Notes
- Musty Musketeers is a reworking of 1948's Fiddlers Three, using ample recycled footage [1].
