Money well spent, particularly with Biden such a profuse provider of verbal gaffes.

Soundies
A new form of entertainment introduced in America in the early 1940's

Soundies were a brand new form of entertainment conceived in early 1940, born in January 1941 and then suffered a lingering demise mid-way through 1947. They were three minute black and white films with an optical soundtrack designed to be shown on self-contained, coin-operated 16mm rear projection machines situated in bars, diners, nightclubs, roadhouses and other public places throughout the States and Canada.
Found an actual Soundie on YouTube here:
