"This is an enjoyable little short that my dad has on 8mm film. (yeah, that celluloid stuff, and not the Super-8 of the mid-70's, either). Typical of the b&w shorts of the time, it concerns Jim who has to -defend his sweetheart- from the villain, who is intent on stealing not only her, but Jim's commission for inventing the "Noiseless Auto Horn." Actually, it had no credits on the print so this is the only place I can find even mentioning it...."

💡 Did You Know?

The $10,000 Jim receives for his invention of the "noiseless auto horn" would be worth $155,703.57 today.
