What to Do with “Shelf” Reports
Reports on pictures shelved, important as they are, hardly come under heading of “What the Picture Did for Me.” Nor the equally important reports on pictures seen but not exhibited in the theatre of the exhibitor reporting. Accordingly, T. O. Service has been prevailed upon to publish reports of this character in his elastic but otherwise pretty good “Service Talks” department.
