The Capitol Theatre had a manager who like most men in those days promoted movies.It is lost on Managers today. Mr. Gerry T. Wormald promoted a all out street ballyhoo for “CUSTER OF THE WEST”. Feb 10 1969.

Something theatre managers today have no idea about.Mr.Kneebone had personal appearance of the Frankenstein monster to promote “FRANKENSTEIN MEETS THE SPACE MONSTER” he wanted to boost ticket sales at midnight. Thanks Mr. Kneebone.Glad i could get you on CT. Feb. 10 1969.
