Hi, I am very much hoping to locate a copy of "The Old Wallop". If anyone can help me, please reply. It would mean a lot to me!! I am also looking for: "School Begins", "Fair & Muddy", "Your Own Backyard". These are all Our Gang silent comedies. I too have some rare Our Gang movies that I can trade for. I also collect & can trade: Laurel & Hardy, Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, Harold Lloyd, Harry Langdon, W.C. Fields, Three Stooges, Marx Brothers, etc... I have lots of movies to trade & lots of rare footage too.

I want to say that Robin finished restoring Your Own Backyard a few years back. (I think that was the title) I'm not sure if it got released on DVD yet or not. School Begins and Fair & Muddy......they may or may not be available....I've never seen them on film, DVD, or VHS. I thought I had Fair & Muddy but it turned out to be a McDougal Alley Kids films.
I do know that SomethingWeirdAuctions was selling a lot of 16mm Kids & Pets that were Our Gang shorts with different titles. From what I have been told many were some of the extremely hard to find titles. Who knows, bootlegs may show up some day. For personal Reasons I refused to purchase any of their films fellig/knowing that there was some rare stuff made it hard to swallow.

Hi & thanks for your reply OPT. I didn't find any of those Our Gang movies on 'Something Weird Auctions'. Perhaps they will be available there or somewhere else in the future. We can only hope anyways. I will check again from time to time.
Please contact me if you ever find any of these titles. It would be much appreciated!

You can keep watching the SomethingWeirdauctions. They have TONS of stuff to unload. A lot of it is junk...some is good stuff. They don't care one way or the other when it comes to prices just as long as it goes. All I can promise is if they do list more Our Gang/Mischief Makers that I won't be outbidding anyone.
