Summary
Of the ten shorts in this 2-disc release:
1. Two Gun Gussie
2. The City Slicker
3. The Non-Stop Kid
4. Ring Up the Curtain
5. Captain Kidd's Kids
6. From Hand to Mouth (1919)
7. High and Dizzy (1920)
8. Never Weaken (1921)
9. Among Those Present (1921)
10. Now or Never (1921)
The first five are not among those included in the forthcoming New Line set. Given Kino's good track record with rare silent material, this set is recommendable sight unseen, though the 7-disc New Line set is certainly a far more comprehensive view of Lloyd's career.
