Review: New York Clipper, 01 June 1872, 70.

“A genuine success has been achieved by Sam Sharpley’s Minstrels at San Francisco Hall, which equals the palmiest nights of the San Francisco Minstrels during their regime. The patronage is fully merited, as the entertainments are excellent, the jokes being fresh, as are the musical selections of the first part; while the artistic execution thereof is fully equal, if not superior to, the best band we have ever had in this city.”
