First time I've seen this in 40 years. My dad has the 200ft version on 8mm bought back in 1963 and I still have this in my cellar and if I can get it digitalised I'll post it.

Beautiful! I had this Ken Films 50-footer when I was a kid. Great job on the transfer, and thanks for posting! It's probably been 35 years since I've seen this.

Even finding and recording this is awesome five stars, even if it is short version

If this is what I think it is- this is the "Ken Films" 8mm reissue from the early '70s (they had the rights to release the United Artists pre-1949 Warner Bros. library for "home movie" audiences)- it was available in two lengths: 50 and 200 ft. versions...this is the "short" version.

This was an excerpt from a 1935 Warner Bros.-Vitaphone two-reel short that was SO good at recreating "silent movie comedy", some documentaries on Mack Sennett and silent films used excerpts from this, passing the footage off as originally from the 1910's and '20s itself!

This is the entire reel that I have. |
