Here's a Cliff Bowes Cameo Comedy from the series' last season; Camei was the one-reel comedies from Educational Pictures, and 1929 was the year sound was coming in. Like most of the Cameos, it is brisk, and has two sets of gags. One has Cliff dragging a tiny dog along the street, and the second has a romantic rival dousing him with "African Itching Bugs", leading a butler to douse him with a repellent that rots his clothes away.

It's fast, it's efficient, and it has a number of good gags. That's pretty much what you want in a one-reel comedy.
