Description:
This leading industry publication, published out of New York, was founded in 1915 by Wid Gunning (who called his publication Wid's Daily until 1922). The Film Daily documented the rise of the Hollywood studios, the transition to sound, and the evolution of the American film industry (the paper finally shuttered in 1970). The Film Daily included feature reviews, news stories, and advertisements, but its extensive coverage of short films in the 1920s and 30s distinguished it from other trade papers of the period. -- Eric Hoyt, 2011/2013

G ALONG THE ROAD 0 ROMANCE > 10 SONG HIT STORIES Songs the whole world is singing. Their drama, their humor, their romance told in pictures such as "The Last Dogie." Their popular melodies sung by famous star*. YOU CAN ALWAYS HAVE A GOOD SHOW WITH F0X-ED0CATI0NAL SHORT SUBJECTS YOU CAN ALWAYS BUILD BIGGER PROFITS BY EXPLOITING THEM Hectic years of strange battles for business, of wild premium orgies, of double featuring, cannot obscure the fact that the biggest asset a theatre can have is a reputation for always having a good show, on the screen. Only with good short subjects can this reputation be built. Only by exploiting them can you take full advantage of their business building power. Fox-Educational short subjects are the kind that make the customers want to come again. Their stars are real marquee names. They are backed up with consistent, nation-wide exploitation and publicity. They are accompanied by accessories to make theatre exploitation easy and efficient. It's good business to make them always a part of vour show, and to make them a vital part of your advertising as well. Printed in U. S. A.
