The Cat's Meow

A wide-eyed man in a pith helmet.

What

A 1924 Pathé one-sheet for The Cat's Meow, an American silent comedy short.

Why

Roy Del Ruth directed Harry Langdon in it, and the film was long thought lost until a print with Portuguese titles turned up.

Notice

The comic peers round the edge of a printed sign that reads "MACK SENNETT Presents The CAT'S MEOW".

“A comic peeking round the bill”
