Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Three of a Kind was also released as Mistaken Identity, which pretty much says it all. Chick Chandler, Berton Churchill and Richard Carle star respectively as confidence tricksters Jerry Bassett, Con Cornelius and F. Thorndyke Penfield. Each of the crooks thinks that the other two are wealthy, thus they spend most of the picture trying to swindle one another. Eventually, Jerry pulls out of the game when he falls in love with Penfield's pretty daughter Barbara (Evalyn Knapp). Faster-moving than most Invincible Pictures releases, Three of a Kind should please fans of such latter-day conning-the-conners epics as The Sting.
