I like the image of Roscoe Arbuckle in this ad for The Dollar-a-Year Man.

I like Roscoe's top hat, checked coat and striped pants in this ad for Crazy to Marry.

The owner of the American Theater in Butte tried some tricks to promote Roscoe's The Travelling Salesman while the Eagles and Elks held a convention in town. Roscoe was a member of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks. I'd imagine the automotive satchel was not safe to drive.

The Modjeska Theater in Augusta, Georgia promoted The Traveling Salesman with an Arbuckle bobble head and an electric train layout in a display window. People love electric trains in windows. The Modjeska was named after Helena Modjeska, a famous Polish-American actress.

Meanwhile Arbuckle was shooting location scenes in Chicago for his next movie, Freight Prepaid, which was later renamed Fast Freight.
