| Description: | JACKSON AND BLAKE Two comics (one blacked up) make jokes, play a tune and sing a song. Two comedians stand on a set. One is blacked up (blackface). They make a couple of jokes and then play a tune on trumpet and trombone. The white comic sings a song called possibly "It's a million to one, you're far from home." He plays a trumpet solo as if he is crying, his made up colleague starts to cry in a comic manner too. They pick up the tune in a jolly manner once more. | |
