Summary

Description
English: Photo of Red Skelton as Willie Lump Lump and Shirley Mitchell as his wife from a 1952 Red Skelton Show. The skit premise was that Willie's wife wanted to teach him a lesson about his drinking, so she hired a carpenter to re-do their living room. (Skelton had a set constructed that was perpendicular to the stage.) Willie's wife appears to go about the home normally, but to Willie, she appears to be walking on the living room walls. The photo shows Willie at the table with his wife on the wall.
