Description:
Motion Picture News was the leading film industry trade journal during the 1920s. Founded in 1908 as a counterweight to the dominant Moving Picture World, the News was the voice for the independent, non-Trust, producers. Later Motion Picture News expanded its coverage to the entire industry, supporting the independent exhibitor with objective film reviews, summaries of programs at theatres across the nation, activities of regional exchanges in the cities with regional exchanges, and excellent coverage of the coming of sound and screenings and stage shots at the major New York City theatres. -- David Pierce, 2013

74 Motion Picture News October 4, 1930 "Carrier Manufactured Weather Always Cool <*<*<* Never Cold* Simply this . . . and the public found it true. Not a damp coolness, but the healthful comfort produced only by complete air conditioning. THIS house . . . owned by the Byrd Theater, Inc., and operated by Walter J. Coulter, President . . . has used Manufactured Weather with marked success as a promotion feature, summer and winter. For the past two summers Richmond people have been drawn to the Byrd, seeking the cool, non-humid comfort which is provided. The complete Carrier System for Air Conditioning in the Byrd includes an efficient CENTRIFUGAL REFRIGERATION UNIT which makes it possible not only to reduce the temperature, but more importantly to hold down the humidity. The same system produces an equal degree of comfort in the winter . . . dispelling stuffiness, warming or cooling automatically as demanded by the weather or the size of the crowd . . . cleaning the air and distributing it uniformly throughout the house at all seasons. Well-informed showmen know that anything less than a complete air conditioning system cannot give patrons the comfort conditions which are now pro vided by the more progressive houses. They know that satisfactory results cannot be obtained without a complete air conditioning system which must include an adequate and efficient refrigeration system. The Carrier System is not to be confused with those systems offering only half-way results, and it will pay you to know the many differences. A Carrier engineer will be pleased to consult with you at your convenience.
