Newscopy: "Display windows showing a treasury of immortal opera artists in the costumes of the roles in which they made their fame are attracting Market street crowds in front of the Emporium. The figures are life-size and the costumes real, shipped from the warehouses of RCA Victor Recording Company. There is a lovely Geraldine Farrar as 'Thais', another of her as 'Violetta' in 'Traviata'. Luisa Tetrazzini too is among the galazy. Lucreza Bori, Rosa Ponselle, Elizabeth Rethberg, Mary Garden, Schumman-Heink are but a few of the names which made operatic history at the Metropolitan Opera along the years. Besides the mannikins there are in the display valuable old prints of these and other characters from opera".
