Review: New York Herald, 23 December 1864, 4.

“[A] private exhibition was given on Monday night at the Turkish Hall, which is to be opened this week to the public.. . .The scene of the Turkish Bazaar was beautiful and peopled with the most curious personages; and the summer kiosk, with its inhabitants, its receptico [sic], its music and dancing girls reminds one somewhat of the enchanted visions of Aladdin’s Wonderful Lamp.”
