Hints on Newspaper Advertising
No. 10 — -"The Great Man Votes” (RKO)
It has already been indicated that this picture needs nil the help it can get. It has merit, but it needs selling. The above ads, varying from the pressbook in most cases, except as to illustration and photos, present some idea of what happened in different cities.
The campaign of the Radio City Music Hall, for example, is dignified, but whether it will attract customers in other cities is a question. The two entrants from Washington carry more punch, but it might be wise to concentrate on the children and minimize Barrymore. If he is a draw, that is a different situation.

The Park, apparently, was not too sure of the show’s draw, backing it up with plenty of attention to short selling. This was smart, even though it indicates that the amusement rates on the paper can’t be very high.
All in all, this a varied lot, but it might be well for the attention to be centered on the child stars, as suggested before. The picture will draw critical raves, no doubt , but that is not enough to put the show over.
