“IN OLD KENTUCKY”
Has Played to More Satisfied People to Date in the United States Than
Any Other Picture Ever Shown!
BIGGEST THEATRES EXTEND ENGAGEMENTS
Breaking a set policy of one and two-day runs, many Theatres for the first time in their history, have been com
pelled to extend their engagement of ‘in Old Kentucky'’ in many cases to three and four times their original book
ings. In some of the coldest weather, and in some of the hottest, “In Old Kentucky’ has played to packed houses
wherever shown, in both the big cities and the little towns, regardless of the heat, cold or rain.

RECORDS BROKEN ALL OVER THE COUNTRY

Only recently when this picture was brought back for a second engagement at the biggest Theatre in Louisville, Ky.,
it became necessary to call out the police to keep people from fighting their way through the eager crowds that
thronged the street in front of the Theatre and could not get in.
