Yes, Mark, it's part of Kino Video's terrific collection of Keaton
material. You'll find it in Volume 3 of Kino's three-volume set.
Vol 3 consists of three tapes--including one with PLAYHOUSE, COPS and
THE GENERAL on it.
The other features in that volume are COLLEGE and STEAMBOAT BILL, JR.
Five other shorts are also included.
I highly recommend it. Good quality transfers from good quality
original sources.
