Amerique and Neville with Gilda Gray's revue at Keith's (The Devil Dancer), three days from a Thursday

Touring presentation-house engagement of Samuel Goldwyn's 'The Devil Dancer' (Gilda Gray), with Gilda Gray appearing in person on stage alongside a large company including Amerique-Neville, Gracie Deagon, Harry Frankel, Charlie Cannefax, and Joe Dunlevy — the same touring package already documented at the Palace Theatre, New York (hist_event 19971), continuing on the road into mid-1928.

Reasoning The ad presents Devil Dancer as currently on the bill ('The DEVIL D...'), so this booking cannot predate the film's 19 Nov 1927 national release (anchor A006).
c. June 1928 estimated · doubtful

Source Neville Goddard Photo Gallery and Newspaper Clippings — Cool Wisdom Books — 168clipping 1033 OCR: 'Samuel Goldwyn presents Gilda Gray, The Devil Dancer — THREE DAYS STARTING THURSDAY — Gilda Gray (in person) on the stage and a large company in dazzling dances — Amerique-Neville, Gracie Deagon, Harry Frankel, Charlie Cannefax, Joe Dunlevy — no advance in prices for this — Texas Four — 4 complete vaudeville shows daily.' The corpus's own field_clip_date reasoning already matches this touring engagement to media:1103, dated June 1928.

Why pm-actor-533: pm-actor-533: month borrowed from a separate, differently-cast clipping (media:1103/Dayton) whose identity with this booking is unconfirmed.

Reasoning This is a contemporaneous theatre advertisement (present-tense booking notice, 'three days starting Thursday'), not a retrospective piece, for the touring presentation-house version of Gilda Gray's 'The Devil Dancer' stage-and-screen package that also carried the Amerique-Neville dance act (the same touring show already dated for hist_event 19971's Palace Theatre booking in Nov 1927-Jan 1928). The corpus independently matches this exact touring bill to another dated clipping, media:1103, from June 1928, which is adopted here as the engagement's approximate month, reflecting that the tour continued for several months after the film's November 1927 release.
