Lina Pantzer & Co.’s 20 Minutes in a Toy Shop

Location:

Type:
There is no special setting, not even a drop; nothing to denote a toy store excepting a few children’s playthings scattered on a counter, and from which a boy, presumably intended for the comedian, attempts to extract fun.
Miss Pantzer becomes a "doll" twice, and there is another young woman who doubly attempts the mechanical feat, but neither helps the proceedings, any more than does the young girl who is the clerk of the store.
Miss Pantzer on the tight wire with a kinetoscope effect , marks the finish of what is a draggy, ragged, poorly constructed sketch which must be rebuilt almost entirely to at- tract any notice.
