Placard, 8-1/4” x 9-1/4,” “A Riot ... In A Burlesque on CARMEN ... 4 Big Parts ..Charlie Chaplin ... Majestic Theater... 4000 Feet of Continuous Laughter” with an image of Chaplin. VG. A Burlesque on Carmen is Charlie Chaplin's thirteenth film for Essanay Studios, released as Carmen on December 18, 1915. Chaplin played the leading man and Edna Purviance played Carmen. Chaplin's original version was a tightly paced two-reeler, but in 1916 after Chaplin had moved to Mutual, Essanay reworked the film into a four-reel version called A Burlesque on Carmen, or Burlesque on 'Carmen', adding discarded footage and new scenes involving a subplot about a gypsy character played by Ben Turpin
