The first segment they describe sounds like "Lodge Night." The second segment, involving the amusement park, doesn't seem to be reflected in any of the vidcaps shown. The third segment, in the haunted house, is from "Shootin' Injuns," and is the two surreal-looking vidcaps shown. And then the Laurel & Hardy segment.
I have no idea what that first vidcap is from, but it kind of looks like Wheezer sitting on the ground. I'm pretty sure, in any event, that the amusement park footage for "Fair And Muddy" was left out of the film, since the cutting continuity doesn't mention it.

It would be terrific news if someone could unearth a print of this one!! The kids surely were cute all dressed up in sailor suits!! I'll bet their clothes were not very white near the end of the film though!

Especially considering they get into a mud fight while wearing the sailor suits.

Hello everyone, I have been waiting for this day to come. It is exactly 80 years ago today that "Fair And Muddy" was first released and I would like to announce that this film is known to exist! The picture quality isn't perfect but it is virtually complete. At this moment in time, I have no idea when it will be available on DVD, etc. Any of you are invited to view it before then but you would have to come to England. Robin.

Of all the MGM lost Our Gang films, the one I hoped most to someday be found was "Fair and Muddy" . Congratulations to Robin for this great find!! Now, if someone can just find "Edison, Marconi, & Co."--my next most hoped for!!!

My most hoped for The Holy Terror. Well, of course after a 100% complete "Our Gang" (first film) print is found, but we have a good portion of it.

I'd bet that "Yale Vs. Harvard" would be a good one. Apparently, the Roach studio spent a bit of extra money on it since it was the first MGM release.
