ASCENT OF THE DOLOMITE TOWERS

1

Conquering the Dolomites

Photographed by the intrepid mountain climber, Mr. F ORMISTON-SMITH,
The only record ever secured of the scaling, from base to summit, of many peaks of the Dolomites of Southern Tyrol, some of which has never before been ascended. The most difficult mountaineering feats in the world.
The audience see the climbers start on their hazardous journey, accompany them step by step, gasp with apprehension as they negotiate the difficult rocks and treacherous "traverses," and heave a sigh of thankfulness when they realise that the hard-fought-for summit is reached. Finally, they depart with a glad consciousness that the safest and most entertaining method of climbing the Dolomites is by-the Urban Bioscope.
Marvels of Clearness and Realistic to a remarkable degree.
Nerve Thrilling, Exhilarating, Wonderfully Fascinating.
