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.

STAGED IN THE CLOUDS The most astounding drama that the mind of man ever conceived — or the bravery of the bravest ever carried to successful conclusion. A romance of today which will be the actuality of tomorrow — piracy in the air lanes! A terrorizing certainty which crowds the mind with pictures of the vivid drama soon to take place in the vast ocean of the skies. A picture in which you are lifted 'from your seat--to rush, to roar, to whirl, to dive through the immensity of space — to hang at a rope's end a mile above the earth while the woman you love sweeps on above you, helpless in the clutches of a bandit of the air. Mayhap you will see many years from now one other human being with the ice-cold nerve of Omer Locklear in this amazing, overwhelming, stupefying Universal Jewel Production, but until that far-off day "THE GREAT AIR ROBBERY" will be Number One of all the pictures ever made above the surface of the earth. A thriller in which the 6ky's the limit!
