Williamson announce with pride the premier presentation in Auckland of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's titanic epic of the Klon“The Trail of’9B” BITING, DRIVING SNOW - A GIGANTIC_ AVALANCHE^ Crushing hundreds of Klondyke' gold seekers to death. SWIRLING RAPIDS, SWAMPING THEIR FRAIL BOATS Are a few of the scenes in the mighty picturisation of Robert Service’s book With its cast of 33 principals, 15,000 extras (2,000 more than “Ben Hur”), which took over twelve months to produce, in Alaska. “THE TRAIL OF ’9B” (Bigger than “Ben Hur.”) The Greatest Spectacle Ever Presented on Any Screen. DOLORES DEL RIO (The Star of “Ramona”) and RALPH FORBES IN THE STELLAR ROLES “That magnificent film, “The Trail of ’98,” must be the answer to the prayer for a successor to “Ben Hur." In ray opinion it outclasses that classic and illustrates the finest work that America has ever put into motion pictures. The thrills are the greatest I have ever seen on the screen.'’ London Daily Sketch. “Scenes so mighty, moments so spectacular, love episodes so thrilling as the screen has rarely shown.” — London Times. SPECIAL MUSICAL SCORE BY MAURICE GUTTRIDGE AND HIS ORCHESTRA Box Office Arrangements: The Plans fo Press Tributes to this Epic Production:“THE TRAIL OF ’9B” ‘‘The. most majestic and imposing tribute to the courage and fortitude of the human race ever created jn any shape or form.”— London Daily Telegraph. “The film, as a spectacle,-is marvellous. There is a mighty avalanche, apparently oblitering hundreds of people, and the passing of the White Horse Rapids Yn fragile boats and the incineration of a whole city.''—London Referee. The Trail of ’9B’ Comes with the most enthusiastic endorsement ever given to a motion picture* by the world’s press. Seeing it, you follow the golden trail of touching romance and red blooded adventure strewn with the wreckage of broken hearts and blighted hopes. What a Colossal Masterpiece! You’ll See! The famous CHILKOOT PASS, a heart-breaking barrier requiring superhuman strength and courage to surmount. THE SHOOTING OF WHITE HORSE RAPIDS, the most perilous part of the gold rush down the Yukon. THE BURNING OF DAWSON CITY, the world's most spectacular pioneer gold camp reduced to ashes. Y’ou 11 never see it’s like again. RICH IN ROMANCE, COMEDY, and ADVENTURE.
