Harold Lloyd -- The Sky's the Limit on Laughter -- June 4, 2023

Bismarck Tribune, 09-June-1923

I wonder if the Eltinge Theater in Bismarck was named after Julian Eltinge, who was the best-known female impersonator in the country.

"The longest, funniest and most hair-raising laff special ever known." I like this photo of Harold.

The Four Marx Brothers Keep Their Act...Cleverly Freshened -- May 16, 2022

New York Tribune, 28-May-1922

The Four Marx Brothers, at that point Chico, Harpo, Groucho and Gummo, made a movie in 1921, but it was never released. Their film career really began in 1929. New York's Palace Theater was the pinnacle of vaudeville in the United States. Julian Eltinge was the best-known female impersonator in the country.
