MAIL CAMPAIGN For the Exploitation of “Johnny Get Your Gun” SHERMAN SQUARE, LENOXTOWN MO TEL LENOX 0.09 Dear Madam: It is only on rare occasions that a motion picture exhibitor is privileged to make so important an announcement as that which it is our privilege to make herein, namely, that Fred Stone, the celebrated comedian in musical comedies will appear in his new Artcraft photoplay, "Johnny Get Your Gun,” at our theatre next This is a charming story of an athletic western cowboy who becomes a motion picture actor, and who later is involved in a series of thrilling episodes in which he saves a lovely girl from a fortune hunting Count and himself finds love, Mr. Stone is an acrobat as well as comedian and it is said that many of the athletic feats performed by him in "Johnny Get Your Gun” are remarkable and quite unsurpassable. We are convinced that this photoplay will be one of exceptional interest to our clientele. Mr. Stone is excellently supported by a large cast of prominent screen players, and many of the scenes are ponderous and of wonderful beauty. It will afford us pleasure to extend you every courtesy should you find it convenient to attend the premier display. * Yours sincerely, Manager.
