Judge — July 8, 1922 — page 17: what you’re looking at
What you’re looking at
This page is a **theater/entertainment gossip column** with photographs of stage and film performers, not political satire. The "Broadway Broadcasts" section reviews current theatrical productions and performers. The content references: - **Ed Wynn** and a production called "A Perfect Fool" (likely a 1920 Wynn comedy) - **Claire Windsor**, a Goldwyn film actress in "Brothers Under the Skin" - **The Marmein Sisters**, acrobatic performers The humor is light and backstage-focused: the final joke warns Keith Theater stagehands to remove loose tacks before the Marmein Sisters perform their acrobatics, implying the danger of the sisters landing on exposed nails during their routines. This is **entertainment journalism**, not political commentary—typical filler content for Judge magazine alongside advertisements and satirical cartoons.

Broadway Broadcasts ED. WYNN AND .’; KIPLING A “Perfect Fool” there was and he made a hit, and Madge McCarthy is one of the “ladies fair.” Claire Windsor, the star of Peter Kyne’s “Brothers Under the Skin,” is one of the best actresses on the screen and a solid Goldwyn star. Let us hope that the stage hands of the Keith Theaters are very careful not to leave any loose tacks around when the Marmein Sisters “do their stuff.” Photograph by Ape. comicbooks.com
