Re: Mafia Webinar: Collecting Classic Comedy and Film (part 1?): Glenn Mitchell, Richard M Roberts and Hooman Mehren
That was fun; I hope there will be more of them! It brought back memories of ordering from Blackhawk back in the Seventies. (My first order was two Harold Lloyd shorts: ALL ABOARD and DON'T SHOVE. Before long I was ordering used prints from Movie Collector's World.) Those were the days.

Thank you, Richard! I love those shorts. It's a real shame he didn't stay at Roach for several more years.

Thanks for posting this, Richard! I haven't seen enough Smith Family, but it's clear that Mary Ann Jackson was more than ready for Our Gang.
