Photo by "KYLE, Winnipeg"........"Fred and Lydia Weaver, Theater: Keith's Boston, 1916, Type: Acrobat, 7 minutes f.s. Special set. “The Octopus” Iron jaw and trapeze work in an under-the-sea scene, with disrobing and serial swings. The Mayor has forbidden disrobing acts in Boston. We were obliged to put a sash on the lady, who works in full white fleshings. Whether we can get away with the disrobing stunt, remains to be seen. Good act of its kind, and staged in a novel manner.
