The 'girders' were erected on a penthouse roof terrace so that the actor was only a few feet above that, the camera angle then deceives the viewer into thinking that they are suspended over empty air. Still there were no safety harnesses or anything like that. Can you imagine them letting kids do that nowadays?  |

Scooter Lowry is a favorite of mine, and there are so relatively few clear images of him from the Our Gang series that I'm always happy to find another one. |

Scooter, Jay and the rest of the gang in their own clothes Wow, I had never seen that one, but it's nice! Sometimes in the films one doesn't notice just how little Scooter Lowry was in comparison to some of the other Gangsters. Even Jackie Condon dwarfs him in this photo, and he was rather small, himself. |

A little show-and-tell here, I took a photo from the 1933 Mickey McGuire comedy "Mickey's Touchdown" (the first short in which Shirley Jean Rickert replaces Delia Bogard in the role of "Tomboy Taylor"), and colorized it. Attachments:

That's a nice shot, too. I'm not sure I had ever seen a colorized photo of Billy Barty. I knew he was blonde, but he looks almost platinum blonde here. |

His hair looked nearly white on black and white film, which is where the decision to make him such a "light-head" came from.  |

I'm seriously impressed with that colorized photo.
