Notes

The title card on the viewed print read "The Famous Hollywood Burlesque." Although there is a copyright statement on the film, it is not included in the copyright registry. The film was dedicated to the "thousands of people all over the world, who have not had the opportunity of seeing big time burlesque as it is presented on the stage of the famous Hollywood Theatre." Although several songs are performed in the film, their titles have not been determined. As noted in the Variety review of the film, the picture was an "actual run-through of a burly show as done in a Los Angeles house."
