Cohan (in the title role as Broadway Jones), Marguerite Snow, Russell Bassett, Crauford Kent, Ida Darling, and Joseph W. Smiley. Note that everyone is familiar with George M. Cohan from the James Cagney biography, "Yankee Doodle Dandy", but Cohan primarily wrote and performed on Broadway, and only appeared in a total of five movies. This was his very first. He made two more within a year and then returned in the early 1930s for two more. Posters from any of those five movies are extremely rare.
