-Comment: At least this boy in dark (blue) bibs.
Today is a Western themed day on a German channel. So that's the last (by now) movie I found during research for Western movies (or was it by searching for movies with Matty Roubert ?)
Matty Roubert was a child star (also shown in sailor suits) and also starred in Westerns (as grown-up). The Universal Boy (1914) is also a lost movie.
The pic is from the magazine "Film Flashes" (available on archive.org) originally found on the silentcomedians forum. Unfortunately this movie is probably like most other similar movies considered lost.
Not much is known about this movie, not even the actors. Produced by Powers Picture Plays. Not to be confused with "Some Fish!" (1916), a British movie.
So I can't say much more about this. (Any help is appreciated.)
As I like these classics. Rating 3 for now. The boy seems quite young.
Some kids also appeared in today's westerns. But I haven't noticed any in overalls.
Boy fishing on the bottom of photo in the dark shirt is GORDON GRIFFITH
