- Black and white photo of the exterior of the Theatre Comique as taken from a slightly elevated position across Broadway Street, facing southwest. A crowd is gathered in the street in front of the theater around an ornate carriage driven by a man wearing a high peaked hat, and carrying a pair of passengers in dress jackets and turbans, as part of a circus parade. A sign on the top of the carriage reads, "India." A Model T is parked in the foreground. Signs on the facade of the Theatre Comique declare, "Best show in town for the money," "Stay as long as you like," and "High class continuous performance." The Kaiserhof is visible on the left side of the theatre. Signs are posted on the building to the right, on the corner of Broadway and Gratiot Avenue for the Fisher Kline Company, photographers; Union Cut Rate Dentists; John Verbist, cigars, tobacco, candy and fruit; and the Gothic bar. Along the north side of Gratiot, Lou H. Weitz, clothier; and the Library Tea Store are visible. "28," is handwritten at the upper right corner of the recto and "1909," is handwritten on the verso.
