Acclaimed by Press and Public In New York!

This is the glorious, glittering spectacle of life in Vienna that took New York's Broadway by storm. It's a scintillating, vivid, gripping story of the riotous revelry and lavish luxury of an emperor's court, the fantastic whirl of life, love and laughter that swept everything 'before it and drew such tremendous crowds that following three big weeks at two of Broad- way's largest picture theatres, it was booked for an indefinite run at one of the largest legitimate theatres in the very heart of New York's theatre district.

The New York newspapers were lavish in their praise of this stupendous spectacle, "Scintillating, fascinating!" said the New York Times. "It will pay you to make a visit to the Rivoli before it moves away!" said the New York Telegram. "Exceptionally fine-impressive!" said the New York American. "Really great- gorgeons!" said the Morning Telegraph. "It is big; it is enor mous; go and see it!" said the New York World.. Vastly worth while!" said the New York Sun and Globe,

This is your opportunity to see this great production. The greatest love story ever told. You've never seen a picture like this--it's a picture that you will never forget!
