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

THIS MAN CARRIES ONE OF THE INDUSTRY'S BIG RESPONSIBILITIES! Gus Eyssell, Managing Director of the worldfamed Radio City Music Hall, has maintained an enviable standard of entertainment for the hundreds of thousands of people who patronize his celebrated show shop. Mr. Eyssell must make the choice of the industry's greatest attractions. In looking ahead to coming months he has had to decide what are the best entertainments he could present to his vast audience. He has made the decision. He has selected two motion pictures to play in succession: "SONG OF LOVE" and "CASS TIMBERLANE." They are both Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.
