Description:
Motion Picture News was the leading film industry trade journal during the 1920s. Founded in 1908 as a counterweight to the dominant Moving Picture World, the News was the voice for the independent, non-Trust, producers. Later Motion Picture News expanded its coverage to the entire industry, supporting the independent exhibitor with objective film reviews, summaries of programs at theatres across the nation, activities of regional exchanges in the cities with regional exchanges, and excellent coverage of the coming of sound and screenings and stage shots at the major New York City theatres. -- David Pierce, 2013

New York STEEL GEARS vs. DIE CAST Die Cast Gears Cost a Small Part of what Steel Gears do, because Die Cast Gears are made by pressing molten metal, consisting of Lead, Zinc, etc., into steel dies.
