Bob Hope's first feature film was "The Big Broadcast Of 1938" for Paramount, but prior to that Bob made eight short films. Were any of these available on 16mm or 8mm?
Going Spanish 1934 (Educational Films)
Soup For Nuts 1934 (Universal)
Paree, Paree 1934 (Warner Bros)
Calling All Tars 1935 (Warner Bros)
Watch The Birdie 1935 (Warner Bros)
Double Exposure 1935 (Warner Bros)
The Old Grey Mayor 1935 (Warner Bros)

Sorry, I was going to mention "Taxi Turvey", but then I remembered that it was an early Jack Benny short, not Bob hope.

GOING SPANISH is available complete and CALLING ALL TARS as a mute one reel cutdown. I don't know of any of the others.
