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

I Aiistocrats of Sound From coast to coast, from north to south, the map of the United States is dotted with theatres equipped with RCA PHOTOPHONE. These houses represent the aristocracy of the new show world. They are giving to their patrons the utmost in sound reproduction — a quality of tone — a richness of voice expression and the satisfaction that can come only when the mechanism of talking picture presentation is so scientifically perfect that the audience is unconscious of the mechanical agent of its entertainment. Back of these theatres lies the vast resources, the great manufactiu'ing plants, the laboratories and inventive genius of RCA PHOTOPHONE, INC. and its associated companies — the assurance of stability and the guarantee of quality. Your theatre, whether it be 500 seats or 5,000 can belong to this group of De Luxe Houses — can have the finest sound equipment in the world — at the lowest weekly average cost for quality.
