This might be of interest to some with interest in vaudeville as well as comedy in the catskills. Jay Jason was the comedy star in Sugar Daddy; vaudeville in the 1980s. See him on Youtube.
Hmm. Some of these gags I just saw the nigh before from watching some of Buster Keaton's films from 1921-1925. That means that in 1949 these gags had "whiskers" on them: i.e old and worn out. Hence why TV took over at the same with people like Milton Berle and Sid Ceasar. Well, at least these guys stole from the best.

Ah, the good old days of decent, actually funny, entertainment. I seriously think that I was born in the wrong generation.
