The Spirit of the Times:
"A Chronicle of Turf, Field Sports, and the Stage."
New York, New York
July 25, 1868
Note the "dialect" entertainment that's
advertised: "Dat Dutch Girl..." And who'd want to miss
special effects like the "terrific explosion" that's promised?
Why, that had to be nearly as exciting as a car chase in a made-for-TV
movie!
