& CHRISTIAN USED AN IMPERSONATOR

      WHEN EXPLOITING CHAPLIN

      An impersonator played an important part in the campaign

made on Chaplin reissues by J. W. Christian, manager

of the Kentucky Theatre, Corbin, Ky.

      The accompanying photo shows the pseudo Charlie and

the gang of youngsters in front of the theatre following

a noisy parade all over town. The impersonator frequently

made appearances on streets, stores and in each

of the grade schools, cutting capers and handing out bills.

      We have Christian‘s word for it that this old

dyed-in-the-wool Chaplin gag accounted for much interest

on the part of the public and lots of worthwhile

publicity for the picture, hence we‘re passing it along

as a reminder.
