This DVD-R collection of Billy Bevan comedies for Mack Sennett has been mastered from 8mm and/or 16mm reduction prints.

The films are presented with soundtracks compiled from preexisting low-fi recordings.

We don’t recommend this below-average disc since some of the films are available elsewhere in better-looking home video editions.

 
This Region 0 NTSC DVD-R edition is available directly from
