The collection of glowing quotes to drum up business. It must have been around during vaudeville. Nowadays it’s usually just quotes from film reviewers.

  This ad is more about targeting exhibitors and exchanges than the public. The Billboard is trade magazine and State Rights means he’s selling the movie territory by territory. It was still only playing at the Time Sq. at this time. This is showing what a big hit YOU can have. And Houdini in person if you want. So good.
