& This Single Cutout Is Enough to Sell Chaplin

      This single cutout from a First National

lithograph was sufficient to sell „The Kid“ to the patrons

of the Columbia Theatre, Pittsburgh, backed

up by a somewhat crude banner, clearly hand work.

      Chaplin requires announcement more

than selling. He sells himself, but it is necessary to tell that

he is there for sale. (...)

      THIS IS BETTER THAN NOTHING, BUT IT ISN‘T MUCH

      Still the Columbia Theatre, Pittsburgh found Chaplin‘s First

National feature. Theatres catering to transient patronage

have found the production especially suited to flash

exploitation, its stimulative influence upon that phase of theatre

thought figuring importantly in shaping the present

trend of exhibitor advertising.
