An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Doin' Their Bit, the 1942 Herbert Glazer Our Gang World War II (WWII) Home Front juvenile comedy short (made six months after Pearl Harbor, the kids want to help the war effort, but they are too young, so they stage a patriotic show) starring Billy 'Froggy' Laughlin, Billie 'Buckwheat' Thomas, Robert 'Bobby' Blake (billed as "Mickey Gubitosi"), and George 'Spanky' McFarland. Note that Spanky had started in Our Gang movies in 1932 at the age of 4, and by this time, ten years later, he was growing very weary of appearing in these movies. He would appear in just a few more Our Gang shorts (some uncredited) before he would retire completely in 1944, at the age of 16, and this was one of his very last appearances.
