Fields (as Professor Eustace McGargle), Alfred Lunt, Erville Alderson, Effie Shannon, and Charles Hammond. Note that this movie represents the joining together of two of the greatest legends of American cinema, director D.W. Griffith and star W.C. Fields! Also note that W.C.

Important Added Info: Note that glass slides were designed to be put in a special projector that would project the image onto a movie screen (they use exactly the same concept as 35mm slides). This slide is the kind that has two panes of glass that are taped together with black tape around all four edges (front and back), typical of many older glass slides. We have provided a high quality scan of the image, but we have not taken a photo of the slide, because there would really be very little to see! Condition: very good.
