Interesting news clip. Any idea of the date? When I think of Sonoras I think of the gorgeous ones with curved sides but I suspect this is later during the Orthophonic era.

It is more like "Movie Stars loved free stuff".
No different with automobiles, pianos, radios, soap, or underwear. You are famous and your name is a commodity. You accept something and you are endorsing it.

I'm glad to see Ben Turpin's name on that list. All he had to do was look into the camera and I fell on the floor laughing.

When your eyes are always crossed like Ben Turpins' it is hard to keep from falling down.
