Here's my latest "restoration" of an Our Gang silent, "No Noise". I used 4 different sources to piece the film together. It's nearly complete, minus the original opening credits (which I hastily recreated). The version of this film shown on the TCM marathon was only about half the length of the original film. This is the longest version of the film available publicly. Special thanks to James for providing the footage as well as to Richard for providing one of the transfers. Enjoy!

I've been subscribed to your Youtube account for a while now, and I always look forward to seeing the restored silents that you post. In fact, it was via your videos that I was able to see Scooter Lowry on screen for the first time. I appreciate the painstaking effort that such restorations must require. |

Antifrodis needs to be put in charge of the restoration of the Pathe silents for DVD release!!
Macinac, or whatever company is planning on releaseing the Pathe silents on DVD, if you are monitoring this forum, hire antifrodis ASAP!
(Actually, it would be nice if RHI/Genius would want to restore and release the Pathe silents... that way we could get all the Pathe and MGM silents in one box set!)

Thank you for posting these; they are very much appreciated. I agree that you are the best person to be in charge of restoring the silents. I would rather pay you for as complete a set as you can make than Genius or whoever is making an inferior collection now.
I guess the titles are off to avoid easy detection by searches? Perhaps "Tellin' Whoppers" should be renamed, since they show up on a search for "Telling Whoppers"?
In any case, thanks again, and I hope you continue to make more of these, especially prints of footage missing from common commercially available sources.
