Filmed in Fort Lee, New Jersey, this film was previewed once and not released. Legend has it that Groucho Marx hated it so much that he burned the negative. The film is now believed to be lost.
This silent short saw the Marx Bros. teamed for the first time prior to their move to features. The film had only one public screening. Groucho later claimed that it was not very good.
This was the first film in a comedy series which was to be called Comedies sans Custard.
