Further report from the Texas delegation...
I have ten or twelve programs from that tour, plus a ticket, and some
assorted odds and ends, and the "Twins" phrase -- nor anything like it-- is
nowhere to be seen. The program and advertising invariably used the
following phrase: "Mark Twain"-Cable Readings

The identically phrased ads placed by Pond in newspapers in New York,
Cleveland, and Washington, DC in Nov-Dec 1884 that I have found do not use
the phrase "Twins of Genius." They ads do describe the duo's entertainment
as a "combination of genius and versatility that appeals freshly to the
intelligent public."
