How true, they didn't even bother to put a clean shirt on Alfalfa for the publicity still above, it's got pretty noticeable white, presumably food, stains on it.
I'm going to resist the temptation of pondering whether that shirt still exists and whether it could be tested for Gus Meins DNA. Oh 5hit I've just said it.

I just came across this photo, which I've never seen before that nicely illustrates Sherwood's missing tooth.

But when it comes to missing teeth, this takes some beating.

Re: The 'white stains.' Actually, I think that's some embroidered pattern.
Another example, though, of a casual approach to continuity might be Dickie Jones teleporting in OUR GANG FOLLIES OF 1938. If you look closely, he's behind the scenes with Spanky working the curtains and out front in the audience, theoretically at the same time.

If you look closely, he's behind the scenes with Spanky working the curtains and out front in the audience, theoretically at the same time. Nope, not embroidery, stains. Probably ice cream stains (although you'd need a mass spectrometer or chromatography test test to prove that). He was after all only about six years old at the time so food stains is the most likely explanation, but.... Yeah I noticed Dickie working the curtains and being in the audience at the same time. Perhaps he had an identical twin brother or a Look-a-Like, after all Tommy Tucker supposedly had one. Then again perhaps Hal Roach simply thought that he'd get his money's worth out of hiring Dickie but it didn't occur to anyone to stick a hat on his head or give him a false mustache for one of the roles.
