Here's the silent Our Gang comedy "Seein' Things" from 1924. This version is compiled from 2 sources. Many of the intertitles that were missing from the common "Mischief Makers" print are restored here. A new soundtrack, as well as new opening credits, have been added. Thanks to James, Bob and Randy for their assistance. Enjoy! Part 1: www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1QMRTPfhrQPart 2: www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOEKFG_7pd0 |

Your material is always fantastic! I don't know how you manage to get your hands on this rare material all the time. I've been searching for years for the shorts you put up (with no luck I might add), or I find a print and all of the inter-title cards are missing. You do a great job! You do a great job with the music, too! That's not an easy task. I know, because I have added my own soundtracks to barren silent film shorts. It's very time consuming.

Glad you like the versions I've posted. I have a some great friends and fellow fans that have been very generous in sharing their films with me. It is time consuming to edit these films together, but like you, I was disappointed with what was available and wanted to try and make things better. I hope Laughsmith is able to release their DVD set of the silents soon. Until then, I will keep scrounging for more rare footage so we'll all have more Our Gang silents to watch. The soundtracks are a pain to put together, but I think they help the films out greatly.
I will be editing more Our Gang silents in the near future. I have enough footage to work on at least 10 more of the silents currently. If you or anyone else has any footage that they're willing to share, feel free to contact me. Also, I'm only working on the Pathe's currently, and the only one I have NO footage from is "Bring Home the Turkey".
