Description:
One of the first film trade papers to be published in LA (instead of New York) and speak to the Hollywood production community. CAMERA never had the strong editorial voice of FILM MERCURY'S Tamar Lane or HOLLYWOOD REPORTER'S Billy Wilkerson, but the paper's sections profiling current productions, instructing aspiring writers about what studios were looking for, and providing the contact information for actors looking for roles can tell us much about how Hollywood operated in the early-1920s. -- Eric Hoyt, 2017

The printed is impatient — the Linotype people are howling for copy — the pressroom has issued its last warning — and the editor is shedding his collar. Now listen to me — SATURDAY NOON IS THE DEADLINE If your little speech isn't in the office by that time, we can't save you. All the good intentions this side of Wilhelmstrasse won't get your ad printed if it doesn't get here. I'd like to wait a year for you — but it can't be done.
