Our Gang comdey Barnum & Ringling, from 1928.
The gang are living in a posh, but boring, hotel. They decide to stage a circus, which gets out of hand. Oliver Hardy makes a cameo as a drunk.
This title was removed from a technicolor film cartridge and put on a new reel. It's been inspected for bad splices or bad sprockets and were fixed, cleaned and lubricated if needed. This film has no opening credits or "the end" credits, not sure if they had them originally or not they may have been spliced out years ago as the films aged and the films were fixed, there are continuity splices,it ran smooth for me.
I have added leader at the ends and beginning. Any questions feel free to ask.
comes in a plastic canister and am asking 5.00 + shipping

Jim, If i were in the states, I would nab this or anything you didn't want anymore because i am sure the kids would love to watch it, but with shipping to Canada....you know what i mean...

I'd hate to see anything tossed however...

Hi Alan, the film has no major lines except for the ones from the original print but does have some black speckling marks (which are typical for technicolor films to have) throughout the film these maybe removed with cleaning? did not even notice any splices.
