The following clip is from the short “Dates and Nuts“ from 1937. In the short there are two dance scenes which are spliced together here. The first one which is better is about 1:15 and the second one is circa :45. The clips features many of the Fordham collegiate shag dancers many who appear in the Harvest Moon Ball clips. I think this is one of the best vintage shag clips out there besides Phony Boy which is also on my channel. I would like to think all those who helped me obtain a copy of this clip. I have seen two version of this short. The copy here is from the Harvard Film Archive and the short appears to be edited differently from the copy in the Library of Congress. From what I remember the copy at the LOC as more dancing in their copy in the first dance scene the camera pans across the dance hall. enjoy the clip.
