„Attractive Lobby of the Illusion Theatre“

Editorial content. „The Exhibitor‘s End of It

      ONE of the many ,homes‘ of the Keystone comedies

is the Illusion Theater, San Diego, Cal., a picture

of which appears at the top of this page. It is said to have

the costliest and most attractive front of all the

motion picture houses in that thriving coast city, and the photo

here would seem to bear this statement out.

Certainly its lobby display is striking and effective in the

highest degree, at the same time being the best

of good taste. A. W. Leonard, manager and owner of the house,

uses the Mutual first run service, featuring Keystone

comedies. He is a strong believer in newspaper advertising,

in conjunction with his regular poster display, when

he has something special to feature, and claims that he

invariably gets good results. In a later issue of

REEL LIFE, if space permits, we shall reproduce some

samples of his advertising ,punch‘ to it, and which

might prove of service to other exhibitors.“  

      Illusion Theater, 1249 Fifth Avenue, San Diego.

      Mabel‘s Married Life is

      released by Keystone June 20, 1914.
