“Mary“ - A New Operatic Soprano (1925)

“Mary“ is a singing chimpanzee. Mary is accompanied by three musicians. Two play the violin, the other plays the banjo. C/U as the monkey sings. She wears a dress. She gives herself a round of applause. Mary then plays the violin and smokes a cigar! Cruel I suppose. FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ. EXPLORE OUR ONLINE CHANNEL, BRITISH PATHÉ TV.
