Pasting Tacoma All Over the World
Here is shown H. C. Weaver, president of H. C. Weaver Productions, Inc., pasting what is known as a 24 sheet on the Market street side of the Rialto Theater. The bill tells its own story, but this picture tells more. It is the start of real publicity for Tacoma, as "Hearts and Fists" will be advertised in trade journals in getting it before exhibitors, then in local papers where it is to be shown and finally on the silver sheet before audiences - and the name Tacoma is tacked securely to this publicity.
