We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

88 The Spell of the Sea That, and the vogue of nautical movies, is what caused this outbreak of tattooing on high-priced arms, chests, and backs. Victor MacLaglen, right, in "The River Pirate," should be thanked for baring his tattooing to the world, because of the magnificent physique he incidentally displays. George Bancroft, above, in "The Docks of NewYork," looks as if he expected to be congratulated on his tattooing, but — hist ! it may only be decalcomanie ! Jack Herrick, seated, 'right, is an example of John Irwin's handiwork in "The Barker." Kalla Pasha, below, as an ivory thief in "West of Zanzibar," doesn't mind having the skin you wouldn't love to touch. Junior Coghlan, below, stopped at nothing in acquiring atmosphere for "Marked Money," even allowing Owen Jensen, an expert, to show him how a design is actually tattooed.
