Thanks for that tip, Richard. Wild & wacky film that I see was a Grapevine print. Nice!

The Roach intertitles - on a whole - were so much better than the Sennett's.

Also saw Sammy Brooks and Marie Mosquini in there. I'm guessing the big guy was Noah Young? Really hid his eyes under some heavy bushes!

Hi Tommie. Too tough a call for me to make. The characters are too covered in greasey greasepaint, hair, and fur.

I would say not, the fake teeth and beard throw off a lot of the face, but those are way too pronounced cheekbones for it to be Parrott.

This was more of an ensemble comedy than a starring vehicle. Do ya think Snub noticed?
