Here's a film of vaudeville acts from 1951 called, Varieties on Parade.
At 55 minutes long, it's not too bad to watch all the way through or you could skip to some notable acts:
4:45 – The Diacoffs aka The Diacoff Velodrome Bicycle Act from UK.
7:25 – The Johnson Brothers (Duke & Harry). This American, comedy juggling duo use clubs and hats. I have a whole blog post dedicated to these skilled juggling brothers.
13 mins – Jimmie & Mildred Mulcay – Harmonica musicians. Very entertaining.
15:20 – Al Mardo and his dog, Flash. I laughed a lot at this. Al did this act for five decades, presumably with more than one dog!
17:30 – Ormond McGill – American magician performing his show, 'East Indian Miracles'.
22:15 – Boyce, Evans and Betty Jane – bizarre, pantomime horse act.
24:50 – Paul Gordon – trick cyclist. Awesome act!
38:15 – Armando & Lita – very funny, comedy, accident-prone, ballroom dancing act.
43:25 – The Bobby Harrison Trio. Music and tap dancing act.
50 mins – The Russ Saunders Troupe – teeterboard act.
