Notes
- The title Vagabond Loafers parodies the romantic expression "vagabond lovers."
- Vagabond Loafers is a reworking of 1940's A Plumbing We Will Go, and would itself be remade in 1956 as Scheming Schemers. Shemp was teamed with comedian El Brendel for the non-Stooge film Pick a Peck of Plumbers (1944), which in itself was a remake of Sidney and Murray's Plumbing for Gold (1934).
- The film marked the final appearances of two prolific Stooge supporting actors: Symona Boniface and Dudley Dickerson. Their faces would be seen in several more Stooge films, however, when footage featuring the actors was recycled for future productions.
- This was the first Stooges short to start with a modified opening title card, which now had "Columbia Pictures Corporation Presents" at the top and a new logo for the Stooges (with one "o" on a different level from the other). This opening title card – with the same head shots of Shemp, Larry and Moe as on previous shorts – will remain in effect on all but the two 3-D films (Spooks! and Pardon My Backfire) the Stooges would make through the last short featuring footage of Shemp (Commotion on the Ocean) in 1956.

“If the heart of a man is deprest with cares,
The mist is dispell’d when a woman appears;
Like the notes of a fiddle, she sweetly, sweetly
Raises the spirits, and charms our ears.”
