Gordon and Max

Gordon and Max do a German dialect comedy act in which they have a confusing conversation. They have a misunderstanding over an I.O.U. and sing parodies.

Talk and Parodies

A special drop is used, hung in “one and a half.” It is probably the back drop used in the sketch (in addition to a few pieces of furniture.)

Henry Lewis

The act was eleven minutes long. Henry Lewis was formerly the German comedian for Browning and Lewis. In this new single act, he wears German makeup, tells parodies, and dances.

Locke and Linder

This comedy skit was eighteen minutes long. One man plays a “souse” with a Dutch dialect dressed in evening clothes. The other plays an Irish policeman, a letter carrier, an old man, and an iceman. The two engage in cross-fire comedic talk. At one point the “souse” wants to get home quickly, so he stamps himself with his address and the other man (as the letter carrier) walks him to his house.
