Trimmed in Gold (1926)
Two barbers, Billy and Andy head out West when one of their customers tells them that gold can literally be scooped up off the ground. Unbeknownst to them and with the shop’s manicurist in tow they run into their customer again who is a crooked gambler winning his money by questionable methods. As he rakes in the pots, an assistant pours the money down a chute which leads to a vault. Billy and Andy, in their explorations, find this vault and think they have discovered a mine. Taking some of the money, they go to the gambler's room and sit in the game. Thus, the money continues to circulate - from the mine to Billy - from Billy to the gambler - and down the chute again.
