Need info on "Help Yourself" (1927) NOW WITH PICTURES

[Louie Despres]

Thanks for the info Frank. I am 99% sure this is the only short Brendel made for the Big Three Exchange or any other independent company during his lull in activity between his leaving Paramount and joining Fox. He and his wife did make an early short for Vitaphone and although the discs exist at LOC (according to Ron Hutchinson of the Vitaphone Project), the film portion has not been found and I have one review where the critic claims he made a test short for MGM, but I have never found any other details on that one.
