LITTLE RASCALS: RESTORED SILENT SHORTS VOL. 1, THE (1922-1938)

In 1922, producer Hal Roach introduced the kiddie troupe known as "Our Gang" to theater audiences and kicked off one of the most popular and prolific franchises in the field of short subjects, with 220 one- and two-reel comedies released over a twenty-two-year period.

By the late 1920s, the series (later re-titled "The Little Rascals" for TV syndication) made the transition from silents to "talkies" and would soon embark on its most revered and best remembered period–the 80 sound shorts made at Hal Roach Studios between 1929 and 1938.
