Rialto Calling Dr. Kildare

Showmen's Trade Review, October 21, 1939:

"No Question About What Charninsky Was Playing:


"If any one had walked up to the box office of the Rialto Theatre, Dallas, Texas, and asked what was playing, the cashier would undoubtedly  have need a doctor.

"For it can be easily seen by this attractive front that MGM's 'Calling Dr. Kildare' was the attraction at Manager Louis Charninsky's show place. Notice the short subjects also received a play on the marquee."
