US Marines in First March Through Shanghai – followed by Kosher Kitty Kelly!

If you’d gone to the cinema in America in April 1927 to see Kosher Kitty Kelly you’d have got some newsreel footage of the US Marines parading through Shanghai – they were there to protect the International Settlement as the strikes mounted that led days later to the Shanghai Massacre of 1927….as to whether it was worth bothering to hang around to watch the silent main reel I really can’t say….Irish wit meets Jewish humour?
