Review: New-York Times, 18 September 1873, 5.

Brief. “Signor Salvini last evening attended the representation of ‘The Black Crook.’ M. Regamey at once sketched the distinguished visitor, and Mr. Davis’ dolls alluded to his presence. The orchestra signalized his appearance by striking up a march dedicated to the tragedian.”
