Description

Theater showing Edward G. Robinson in "The Hatchet Man." Pseudo-Chinese posters, costume, and advertisements. Warner Brothers Theater located at 113 W Wishkah Street, Aberdeen. Thanks to Susan Larson for contributing information.
Additional thanks to  Sam Talley, who adds: "A 'hatchet man' is a person that will do anything to protect his boss. During President Richard Nixon's Watergate scandal, Charles Colson was called Nixon's 'hatchet man', after this movie, for the 'dirty-tricks' he used to protect the President."
