ahhh. ... projection ... that explains all the 'left handedness" ... the left handed salute, the reversed "SF" on the speakers, the left handed guitar player, bass player, clarinets being held with left hand ... I was wondering ... !!! :-)
No this is a Soundie, a 3 minute film manufactured to be projected in a panoram video jukebox. Soundies were made from 1940 till the company went belly-up in 1947. There were approximately 1800 Soundies films produced over those years. Many of them have been lost to improper storage, ill-use or just plain ignorance. My uncle was a collector of old films and most of my videos come from his collection.
Thank you for your kindness. I enjoyed the video a lot. :)

Backwards! That's why Kens smile looks odd!
There are video programs that can "flip" this video so that it will "look" right.

@BirdOfParadise777 Or you could watch it in a mirror if it really bothers you. LOL Personally, I just mentally reverse it.
