Laurel and Hardy

Oliver Hardy was a freemason, which is hinted at in several Laurel & Hardy films, e.g. “Flying Deuces” (1939), when Stan says of Olly: “He’s on the level…” , a Freemasonic reference to a builder’s level.

I say more about Laurel and Hardy in other articles, e.g. Upside Down Man and One Eye in the Symbolism section.
