I like the funny Little Rascals. And there are also other films with them with other actors in sailor suits. First I found a publicity still of "Fire Fighters (1922, silent film) with Peggy Cartwright and another boy (Richard Billings ?) in dark sailor suits. And also others in overalls, I think Mickey Daniels, and others, but most kids of the gang are very young (in the early films). I thought earlier about Our Gang and saw some colorized films recently, but all without sailor suits and now I'm happy to find some. But I don't know them all and have to investigate that further. I found no clips of Fire Fighters, they might be still copyrighted (renewed) and would also be of bad image quality. If someone knows other good films with sailor suits or Lederhosen, please comment. This film is 21 minutes, not sure if also available colorized. See also entry "Little Rascals (1994) for a modern remake and a girl in sailor suits and also the entry on my bib blog. There is also "Our Gang Follies of 1936", but I don't know that.

Colorized update, also of the other boys
