"Kid Auto Races At Venice" is a 1914 American-made motion picture starring Charlie Chaplin in which his "Tramp" character makes a first appearance (although, Mabel's Strange Predicament was the first film in which he portrayed the character, as it was produced a few days earlier than "Kid Auto Races...").

ynopsis

Made by Keystone Studios and directed by Henry Lehrman, in it Chaplin plays a spectator at a 'baby-cart race' in California. The spectator keeps getting in the way of the camera and interferes with the race, causing great frustration to the public and participants. Chaplin's tramp character would go on to be one of the most beloved film icons in history. The film was shot at an actual race with Chaplin and his co-stars improvising gags in front of real-life spectators.
