Arrow Comedies
Volume 1
(1922-1924)
|
Contents: The Fast Mail-Man (1922), Keep Moving (1922), Hello Bill! (1923), No Danger (1923), Love (1924) and Raisin-Trouble! (1924).
This collection of scarce comedy shorts released by Arrow Film Corporation presents films starring Eddie Lyons, Bobby Dunn, Billy West and Jack Cooper. Note that the rival in Love is not Oliver Hardy, as was often the case with 1920s Billy West comedies, but is — instead — Hilliard ‘Fat’ Karr, and features a West rarely-seen outside of his pseudo-Chaplin persona.
