There's a treat in store for you now! The magic talking screen brings you Willard Mack's gripping, soul-stirring story of a love that blossomed amidst the cruelties, the lusts, the law-defying gangland of a great metropolis. Willard Mack has been called from his triumphs of the stage to appear now in his own marvelous detective mystery drama in talking pictures! (Print Ad- Syracuse American, ((Syracuse, NY)) 28 April 1929)
When the metropolis slumbers, the underworld stirs to life. You'll hear it now in the screen's first great talking detective mystery drama! (Print Ad- Prescott Evening Courier, ((Prescott, Ariz.)) 24 October 1929)
"The Voice of the City" travels like a swift limited of melodrama! Fast, ever faster, its plot keeps you on the edge of your seat! (Print Ad- Newberry Observer, ((Newberry SC)) 15 November 1929)
