 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete - I cannot find any sources on Archive.org's collection.  Yoshiman6464 ♫🥚 02:02, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete - Does not satisfy film notability. Robert McClenon (talk) 23:12, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep - I expanded the article and included multiple citations. This 24 year-old film short is mentioned and discussed over and over, especially within the niches of Vitaphone and Judy Garland subjects. It is considered the earliest recording of a Judy Garland performance with her singing solo (at the age of 8) and for that reason alone will continue to be mentioned ad infinitum. It may not be mentioned online by big name media because it is, after all, only about 7 minutes long, it is campy, has horrendous sound quality, and watching it will cause you to either cringe or laugh your head off. Meets WP:NFILM through its 'Other evidence of notability' because it is historically notable and was re-screened in 1996 at New York City's Palace Theatre, and by 'Inclusionary criteria' due to its historical interest re old film technologies and Garland's career milestone.

 * Keep Per Platonk's additions and rationale. Donald D23   talk to me  13:11, 23 October 2021 (UTC)
