Charlie Chaplin
in the latest Mutual Chaplin Special
The Fireman
was played as the feature attraction, first run, in 14 theatres
– all but one of the big first class theatres in that section!
The strip of the ,main street‘ is picked out merely for the sake
of ready illustration. Every other section made a like
showing – the town went Chaplin mad. Reports coming in from
all over the country read the same – crowds turned away
and patrons warmly enthusiastic in their praise of star and picture.
No such record smashing success has ever been known.
Every part of the world is clamoring for the Mutual
Chaplin pictures – for there never was such a sure thing investment.
No speculation – just look up the business done in the
thousands of houses that showed The Floor-walker and The Fireman
and get in in time for the next Mutual Chaplin
