An Exhibitor’s Opinion of “HAM” COMEDIES KALEM COMPANY 235-239 West 23d Street NEW YORK CITY, N. Y. Dear Sirs: It is so very rarely the exhibitor’s good fortune to show good slap-stick comedy, that 1 can't allow the opportunity to pass without expressing my gratitude and thanking you for the “HAM ’’ Comedies. In my humble opinion, they represent the very best in that line — and what recommends them most is the fact that everything in them is in the realm of possibility. In that respect alone they are head and shoulders above the inane rot of most of the other farces for it seems to be the idea that an offence against public decency — say nothing of morality or vulgar suggestiveness — is comedy. Mr. Lloyd V. Hamilton is a great favorite with our patrons. They look forward to every comedy in which he appears. Most sincerely yours, (Signed) SALO ANSBACH. Lessee and manager, Ocean Grove Amusement Enterprises, Ocean Grove, N. J. Manager of the Alpha Theatre, Bellville, N. /., and Scenario Theatre, Newark,, N. J. WHat do YOU tKink of “HAM** Comedies?
