This is my personal blog / database about Bib overalls in feature films and TV series. It's my first blog. I collect informations, trailer videos, low-res images and personal comments/ratings. This blog was created in 2011. From 2012-2020 on Wordpress.com and now I'm back. Many links are wrong but exist (blog search).

This is a short film (2 minutes) and previously considered lost. It's available on the DVD "Lost and Found: American Treasures From the New Zealand Film Archive" along some other movies including a rare feature film from Hitchcock.
I found this during research for my western blog. And I only have seen some pics and not the complete movie. Produced by Pathé Exchange.
I can't say much more about it. But looks very interesting.
It was (then ?) colorized and hand tinted using stencils. Not sure if this movie is or was copyrighted. The remastered DVD with the new musical score probably is. Maybe the copyright was renewed or bought. The lost or orphan movies were found and I think donated by a collector to the non-profit film preservation project which is part of loc.gov.
The pic is taken from dvdtalk. com. I use Fair Use licence anyway.
Rating 5 for now.
