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

fleMost Ik Gentury Comedies There never was anything surer than the overwhelming national popularity of this marvelously clever dog. Featured always in clean, bright snappy comedies that suit every audience, BROWNIE, the CENTURY WONDER-DOG, has come to be one of the sure-fire attractions of the screen. It is of this wonderful little pup that TURNER & DAHNKEN say through Manager Castelle of San Francisco; "BROWNIE is the best animal comedian in pictures." See him— show him in "PLAYMATES" and "PALS" with BABY PEGGY MONTGOMERY, both recent releases. Play him in his latest release "SOCIETY DOGS," of which M. P. World says; "An exhibitor showing this picture will be performing a service to his patrons." Watch for "THREE WISE BOOBS," soon to be released. The biggest house in the land can't do any better than to show these Century Comedies featuring BROWNIE, the Wonder-dog — a whole show in himself. RELEASED THROUGH UNIVERSAL
