Does anyone have an idea what this film might be? Hank Mann, Bud Jamison, Billy Franey. Perhaps a Century Comedy?
I'll post a few more frames from this in the next message.

Any idea who the gal is in the policeman's uniform? The last image is very reminiscent of a scene in Harry Langdon's THE CAT'S MEOW, with Harry at a phone box handcuffed to Tiny Ward.
Source is a Spanish language print with the title AN IDEAL COUPLE.

Many thanks, Richard, for this information -- your knowledge of vintage comedy is simply astonishing!
