It doesn't really look like Van Eps, and itt looks to my like there are
only six tuners. GVE started playing 7 string in 1938, IIRC. And the
guitarist is using a pick, which perhaps Van Eps did earlier in his
career; I'm only away of him playing fingerstyle.
This was discussed on:

Information on "The Fabulous Dorseys" including the cast of the band and
such is at:

George Van Eps is credited in appearing in "The Big Broadcast on 1936"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0026113/
and "Pete Kelly's Blues" (1955)

Van Eps was a VERY accomplished plectrum player. One of the best.
