Peaches and Plumbers gave Bevan a chance to display his acting talent, and also both films were an even better showcase for Madeline Hurlock.
Locations included Palisades Park, Ocean Blvd., Santa Monica, Hotel St. Catherine, Avalon and Catalina. It is a remake of A Summer Tragedy (1910) and it is based on O. Henry. Ruth Hiatt was originally considered for a role.
