The Korn Kobblers, under the direction of Stan Fritts, filmed a lot of these "Soundies" (short films seen in coin-operated "juke box" projection units) - this one is from 1941- and they're usually compared to Spike Jones & His City Slickers...they both appeared on the music scene at the same time.
Could that bride be William Frawley? Fred Mertz of "I Love Lucy" fame? I second dryad271's question: Where did you get these? Thank you very much for sharing, kynoceph! They are treasures.
flick lives!

MMMy first encounter with the Korn Kobblers.
Marvellous. Terrific version. The female impersonator has a marvellous relationship with the camera/us.
A favourite. Obviously.

I think it looks like Stan Fritz, the 'leader' of the co-operative group. Comparing mouths was my method.
