Oddity of the Week: Oriental Splendour
Created | Updated Oct 14, 2012
This week's Oddity helps you get ready for Halloween.
Oriental Splendour
If you go over to Create, you'll see an invitation. Remember to get your costumes ready for the big mystery evening on 28 October. We're sure Create has spared no expense.
Back in 1906, you had to be satisfied with The Great Kara.
Here's the Library of Congress' description:
The great Kara, the mystery man from India and his $50,000 production of Oriental-splendor supported by a company of select entertainers.
We bet those entertainers were especially 'select'. And that a good time was had by all.
Well worth the admission price, no doubt, to see the pretty girls. And that turban was really cool.
