Synopsis
The plot centers on the chaos that ensues when two pairs of trousers are accidentally swapped. One pair belongs to the landlord of an apartment building, and the other to one of his lodgers. The lodger also possesses a wallet containing rent money, though it does not always appear to, and the wallet mysteriously transfers from one pair of trousers to the other at unpredictable times. However, neither the landlord nor the wallet's true owner is the focus of the story. Instead, *The Rent Jumpers* is primarily a romantic tale between the landlord's daughter, portrayed by the popular Mae Busch, and the lodger's roommate, young Charley Chase.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 11
These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.
Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
