Stepping Out in Cincinnati: Queen City Entertainment 1900-1960Long before folks had a television set and radio in every room, they sought entertainment by stepping out for a night on the town. The choices around Cincinnati were nearly limitless: live theater at the Cox; spectacular musicals at the Shubert; hotels featuring fine dining and dance orchestras; talking pictures at everyone s favorite movie palace the Albee; burlesque and vaudeville shows at the Empress Theater on Vine Street; and gambling casinos

Long before folks had a television set and radio in every room, they sought entertainment by stepping out for a night on the town. The choices around Cincinnati were nearly limitless: live theater at the Cox; spectacular musicals at the Shubert; hotels featuring fine dining and dance orchestras; talking pictures at everyone s favorite movie palace the Albee; burlesque and vaudeville shows at the Empress Theater on Vine Street; and gambling casinos were just a short drive across the river in Newport. All of the major entertainment venues in the Queen City during the first half of the 20th century are explored in Stepping out in Cincinnati. From saloons to ornate movie palaces and from the Cotton Club to the Capitol, you join those pleasure seekers, getting a real sense of what they saw: wonderful events and their countless images the things of which fond memories were made. Today, those memories have faded and virtually all of the once-glittering showplaces have been bulldozed into history. But within these pages, we get to experience first hand what it was like to be there. Unique among the many photographs featuring unforgettable movie houses and nightclub orchestras are never-before-published images of actual live vaudeville performances onstage at the Shubert, plus rare, clandestine pictures snapped inside the casinos in Newport. Also revealed are the locations of the better-known speakeasies during Prohibition; where the best halls to dance to live orchestras were; what the earliest movie houses were like; and what black Cincinnatians did for entertainment."

This is the second I buy. The first lasted for several years and my dogs love it. It is one of his favorite toys. Eventually the string came off, but my dogs kept playing with the bone. Very good quality!

Could use some improvements.
Color: Stick
My Caine corso 15month old puppy destroyed this item in five minutes. The product should have a longer/thicker rope inside tube and a thicker knott at each end of tube. The puppy loves the item but it is destroyed.

Dog loved it, wish it had lasted - better suited for light chewers
Color: Stick
Our puppy was able to pull the rope out of the rubber piece within a day or so. Unfortunately, he then started chewing on the blue rubber piece and had it destroyed in no time. Once the pieces started coming off, we had to throw it away to prevent him from ingesting it.

great for teething puppies
Color: Stick
I have puppies that are 6 weeks old and this toy has been great. They like to gnaw on it as their teeth are erupting. I easy to clean, washer and dryer. I have several other teething toys from same company as I liked this one so much. Would purchase again, highly recommend for teething pups.
