★★★★★ · Behind the Scenes Footage of Our Gang 1929 · calamtykel · 2023-03-19
Looks like whomever went on this awesome vacation out west visited the Hal Roach movie lot and saw Rainy Days being filmed, so that dates the film at 1929. As far as I know ,this is the only existing home movie camera footage of the Gang filming in the early days.

Interesting reel here. The first few shots are taken behind the scenes of two movies.The first I don't recognize, but the second is definitely an Our Gang movie being shot. Is the director the male we see occasionally in this movie? We then go on a (extended) train ride. Interesting that the shots appear to be from the front of the train. Wonder how that came to be. We also get some great shots from a place called "Tiny Town" in Pueblo (close to Denver). The place still exists. Neat!
