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

Marguerite De LaMotte c/i Pclttl Schofield production Directed by WlU.K,HoWard ♦ Does height maKe a hero? Mullaney was a probationer in the Police Department and two inches short of the required height. The Commissioner was a stickler on qualifications, so Mullaney was refused his shield. He was on patrol for the last time, broken-hearted because his job and his girl had suddenly become out of reach. What happened to make the Commissioner change his mind and tell him he was proud of him? What did he do that outweighed the examination he didn't pass, the two inches he lacked in height? Here's a real police story, with all sorts of tie-ups; with thrill and human interest and pathos that will get under your skin. Associated Ejchibitors Arthur S.
