This title can be a bit elusive in collector circles, with few prints circulating. It's mainly found in odd compilation sets or as part of retrospectives on 1930s comedies.

The film may not be a high-value item, but its scarcity piques interest among collectors who enjoy the offbeat gems of early cinema.
