Vitaphone shorts in the new DVD release of The Jazz Singer (1927)

In the new three disc DVD release of Al Jolson's The Jazz Singer (1927), it is the extras included that make this a great find. 3 1/2 hours worth of early Vitaphone shorts give a unique glimpse of what was to become the death of Vaudeville.
Here thanks to YouTube, is a look at a Vitaphone short from 1926.
