Description:
Founded in 1905 by Sime Silverman, Variety is the best known and most important trade paper in the history of American entertainment. Variety began as a New York weekly publication covering vaudeville, however, its scope expanded over time to include legitimate theatre, burlesque, motion pictures, radio, and television (transitions that the MHDL will eventually document within this record). In 1933, Daily Variety was launched in Los Angeles to offer in-depth coverage of the motion picture industry and serve as a competitor to The Hollywood Reporter, which was founded 'on the Coast' in 1930. In March 2013, Variety's owner ended the print edition of Daily Variety, though as of this writing, the weekly publication and a website offering non-stop news updates still exist. Variety may ultimately be best remembered for its integration of show business slang into entertainment trade coverage. Boffo. Hokum. Quickies. Svelte. Climaxer. Tenpercenter. Coastlander. Skein.

26 VARIETY Important Announcement Concerning Irene Franklin's much-talked-of — sensa- tional comic Kid Song : REDHEAD (Redhead-Redhead-Gingerbreadhead) Owing to the numerous requests from performers all over the country, as well as England, for permission to sing "REDHEAD," Miss Franklin has consented to the granting of SPECIAL PERMITS by the publisher, to a selected list of artists. Artists desiring to use "REDHEAD" are requested to communicate with the publisher, who will issue licenses to such acts as do not conflict with Miss Franklin's bookings. No two §cts whose bookings conflict can secure per- mission for such conflicting weeks. It is essential, there- fore, -that those wishing to use the song send in their bookings. This formality is requested in order to enable an impartial distribution. Miss Franklin reserves to herself the exclusive right to sing "REDHEAD" in the houses where she is booked, for the weeks booked, and one week preceding. LEO.
