“Shoe Shine” was the supporting feature to “Albuquerque” at the Brooklyn Paramount. April 17tth was a Saturday night, when the Brooklyn Paramount had an ongoing policy of a “midnight show,” regardless of what was being presented at the time.

Interesting to learn, but nevertheless startling to see.

As was pointed out to me by Comfortably Cool, the two films alternated all day, with “Albuquerque” being the film shown at or near midnight. Still, a strange pairing.
