The Old Fashioned Way – 1934
It’s a Gift – 1934
Man on the Flying Trapeze – 1935
Poppy – 1936
The Universals
You Can’t Cheat an Honest Man – 1939
My Little Chickadee – 1940
The Bank Dick – 1940
Never Give a Sucker an Even Break – 1941
Added to the group are now You’re Telling Me (1934), and Man on the Flying Trapeze (1935).
Both appear to be derived from fine grains of decent quality. Nice gray scales on both. Audio seems a bit better on Trapeze, but keep in mind these were shot on film, more than 25 years ago.
Both, while being essential parts of the Fields canon, which isn’t really that large, both are B Fields, with Trapeze (imho) being the better of the two.
A couple more to go from Kino, and they’ll have preformed et another serve to the cinephile community.
