Way back in the heyday of the
famous Comstock Lode, Virginia
City, Nevada, was a booming city of
30,000. Today it has dwindled to
488 people, its streets ate bare and
ghostly. This spring, Virginia City
roared again when a-host of Hollywood movie stars invaded the historic town to
celebrate the world premiere of the great picture, “Virginia City.” Above you see
Errol Flynn, Sigrid Gurie, Alan Hale and Bruce Cabot as they arrived via Greyhound bus in Virginia City for the celebration. This mode of comfortable travel
was in sharp contrast to the stage coach (in circle) in which they traveled to Virginia City in the picture. At the right above is shown the throng who stormed
Piper's Opera House when the movie stars put on a special performance.

price of rayon ‘has been reduced from
$4.60 a pound in 1920 to 57c today.
