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

00sm^ • We put "National" projector carbons in the water-cooled jaws of this special mechanism . . . sock them with king-size jolts of electricity ... try them at different angles . . . experiment with dozens of sizes and types — and come up with projector carbons that are tailor made for your theatre. The light from "National" carbons is therefore brighter. It is steadier. It is nearly perfect for bringing out the rich tones of color movies. This experimental arc mechanism is only one detail in National Carbon Company's extensive laboratory effort to develop better projector carbons. You, the exhibitor, reap the benefits in better screen visibility, satisfied natrons, and bigger box office! The term "National" is a registered trade-mark of NATIONAL CARBON COMPANY, INC.
