The film premiered at Ambassador Hotel Theater in Los Angeles, CA on September 27, 1922. The film technology utilized for the film is a red and green anaglyph system, made possible by a two-camera, two-projects filming set up that included a stereoscopic format developed by Robert F. Elder and Harry K. Fairall. To this day, the filming and release continue to tell an awe-inspiring story to enthusiasts of film technology, like Rick Lyman.
