Here's a little something from FILM DAILY I never heard before:
Apparently, in 1930, Billy House made a/several shorts at Astoria.
I'm specifically interested in one that featured Shubert showgirl Helen Tucker and Hammerstein girl Gloria LaBow.

Yep, Billy House made eight two-reel comedy shorts for Paramount shot at Astoria, they are:
1930
Aug 30 RESOLUTIONS
Dec 20 OH TEDDY
1931
May 23 THOU SHALT NOT
June (?) THE HEADACHE
Aug 15 BULLMANIA
Sept 19 RETIRE INN
Nov 15 OUT OF BOUNDS
1932
Apr 1 THE DUNKER
Yes, all or most of them survive due to having been in the U M & M/ NTA television package of Paramount shorts, I have one of them, cannot remember which one at the moment, possibly OUT OF BOUNDS, but it is neither particularly memorable or funny, and fellow film collector Jim Reid has THE DUNKER.
The one Gloria LaBow appears in is OH TEDDY.
