Charles Chaplin
Funmaker Extraordinary to the Peoples of the World
A FAR cry indeed from his early days in America,
when but a knockabout comedian in an English vaudeville
company, Mr. Chaplin has surely progressed. His
coming production, released through the United Artists
Corp., depicting the life of a „sourdough“ away up
in the icy regions of the Northlands, gives evidence to the
master‘s craftmanship, and unceasing search for
novelties for his comedies.

„This production is well along towards completion“
Editorial content. „Charles Spencer Chaplin:
His Beginnings And His Rise
By ALFRED REEVES
General Manager, Chaplin Studios, Inc.“
First Photo. „Alfred Reeves – better known as ,Al‘ – who
for almost unaccountable years has been General
Manager of Charlie Chaplin.“
Second Photo. „Charles Chaplin, comic Master
of Arts – who makes the world respond to his characteristic
moods and grimaces.“
SINCE this is for a trade paper and not a fan magazine,
I realize that the men who read the motion picture trade
journals want the truth, and not the glossy fiction of the industry
so widely published.“ (...)
„His present comedy in the making, a story comedy
of the gold rush to Alaska, will be his greatest
production to date, and while it will be spectacular from
the technical standpoint, Charlie has promised
not to forget his first admirers, the children, and is injecting
some of his famous comedy antics especially
for their benefit.
This production is well along towards completion
and will be revolutionary from a comedy
standpoint. It possibly will be in ten reels and will be released
for general distribution through the United Artists
Corporation sometime in the fall of this year.“
