Art reproductions, 17 min. Full stage, spec set. For beauty approaching gorgeousness as to scenic investiture and all that makes for true artistry the act is the most stupendous and brilliant affair ever offered in local showdom [sic]. But their reception was not quite so enthusiastic as I had hoped for. There was some applause of course, but nothing equal to what the act deserves. It was but a repetition of past history as regards all posing acts, as reference to my report on the recent visitation of Larodoe’s Models In Marble will readily disclose. Most of our patrons know little or nothing of art, ancient, medieval, or modern, and they refuse to learn.
