Cramer was a 20-year veteran of the stage when he switched to films in 1928. Big and menacing with a sourpuss of a face, he was in demand as a heavy in dramas, Westerns, serials and comedies. Laurel and Hardy's final film for Hal Roach, SAPS AT SEA, gave Cramer his most memorable role with the Boys and immortalized the line "Scuuuuse me, Jitterbug..."
