We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

A MONTH U A prominent exhibitor said: Without M-G-M this past year, it would not only have been tough sledding for the average exhibitor, but it would have been nothing short of a calamity.” We announce easy sledding again this year, for M-G-M exhibitors! Hop on your sleds, boys! “SWEETHEARTS,” “STAND UP AND FIGHT” are just samples. Followed by A MONTH OF SUNDAYS! Honestly, have you ever in your career as a showman witnessed the like of this: Four weeks in a row! Look! NORMA SHEARER, CLARK GABLE in the powerful “IDIOT’S DELIGHT”. “HONOLULU”, the Darling of Musicals, starring ELEANOR POWELL, ROBERT YOUNG, GEORGE BURNS, GRACIE ALLEN and Hundreds of Hula Honies. MICKEY ROONEY, the box-office kid himself in “Adventures of HUCKLEBERRY FINN”. JOAN CRAWFORD in a million dollar role “ICE FOLLIES of 1939” with James Stewart, Lew Ayres, Lewis Stone. And more easy sledding thereafter!
