& CHAPLIN FILM HERE SUNDAY

„His New Job,“ first Essanay release of Charles Chaplin,

comes to the Shell theater Sunday and Monday.

Wherever this new film has been shown it has been proclaimed

by critics „a riot of fun from beginning to end.“ The film

simply shows Chaplin in search of a job, but his antics keep one

laughing ten-ninths of the time.

& Shell theater

      Sunday, Monday, 21st and 22d

      Chas. Chaplin „His New Job“

      First Essanay Release.

      This is not a Keystone. You have never seen it. It is the first

film comedy in which Chaplin has posed for months.

It is the first new Chaplin comedy shown in the city in many

months.

      It is by far the best thing Chaplin has ever done.

      WE SHOW THEM FIRST

„In Chaplin´s company“

Editorial content. „He Imitates Charles Chaplin

      Have you seen Charles Chaplin‘s double? He is doing

a comedy stunt in front of the Melbourne theater, where

His New Profession, a Chaplin comedy, is being shown today.

The actor, who was in Chaplin´s company at the London

Music Hall, can imitate Chaplin with remarkable

veracity. The actor would have gone into a big film company

in California recently, but his health would not permit,

and he accepted an offer from Eugene Levy, owner of the

Melbourne, to imitate Chaplin in front of the theater.“

      Melbourne Theater, 916 Pacific Avenue, Tacoma.

      His New Profession is

      a Keystone comedy of 1914.


Redaktioneller Inhalt. Der Titel der Meldung ist:

„Er imitiert Charles Chaplin.“ Der Text lautet: „Haben Sie

Charles Chaplins Double gesehen? Er zeigt einen Comedy Stunt

vor dem Melbourne Theater, wo heute His New Profession,

eine Chaplin Komödie, gezeigt wird.“  Notabene His New Profession

von Keystone und nicht His New Job von Essanay!

„Der Schauspieler, der in der Londoner Music Hall zu Chaplins Company gehörte, versteht es Chaplin mit bemerkenswertem

Talent zu imitieren. Dieser Schauspieler sollte vor kurzem zu einer grossen Film Company in California gehen, aber seine

Gesundheit erlaubte es nicht, und so akzeptierte er das Angebot

von Eugene Levy, dem Eigentümer des Melbourne, vor

dessen Theater Chaplin zu imitieren.“
