Here is a picture made a number of years ago and somehow
the owner of the Crystal at that time did not see fit to
show it. In looking over past bookings recently, the pres-
ent manager noticed that fact and immediately booked it at
a reduction in price and we pass that reduction along to our
patrons. The picture is as good as ever, but the first time
we have ever been able to show Douglas Fairbanks at these
prices. * —
