Scope and content
Crowd milling around door of Rust Building near South 11th and Commerce Streets, many automobiles stopped in street. Taken in connection with the "Tugboat Annie Sails Again" premiere on October 18, 1940. The chance to see actual Hollywood stars lured thousands to downtown Tacoma where the film "Tugboat Annie Sails Again" would be shown in three theaters - the Roxy, Music Box and Blue Mouse - in one night. Actors Marjorie Rambeau, Alan Hale, Sr., Ronald Reagan, Hedda Hopper and Donald Crisp would be making personal appearances at each theater as well as a celebratory banquet at the Winthrop.
