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

You must have good Comedy Most of the leading theatres select all or part of their comedy entertainment from Educational Pictures. If your favorite theatre is not showing Educational Pictures, you are missing much of the screen's best fun. Ask the manager why. And we would be glad to have you write to us, giving the name of the theatre. k LARRY SEMON SPECIAL COMEDIES HAMILTON COMEDIES BOBBY VERNON COMEDIES WALTER "HIERS COMEDIES MERMAID COMEDIES CHRISTIE COMEDIES JUVENILE COMEDIES TUXEDO COMEDIES CAMEO COMEDIES LYMAN H.
