It is criminal that we don't know more about this wonderful comedian and animator. I'm going to use that well overused word I cringe a genius. I just discovered him tonight by accident what an amazing array of goodies now I'm going to try to try and find out more about him.

Thank you for this, I'm shocked I've never heard of this man.

*Thanks!*

Here is a man that deserved alot more respect than he got
The fact that now, 100 years later, his films and ingenuity are fresh and flawless are a tribute to that.
Non-slip banana peel?!
Thank You for enlightening us (who never heard of him)
so we can totally enjoy him.

Many of his films can be seen now on TH-cam, too. Thank you for the bio. I only discovered Bowers today!

[@Laura-fw1jo]

What a great innovator. Way ahead of his time. Hellish time consuming to put forth stop motion then ; not to mention his wonderful imagination
