We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

Within the next week or ten days we will proudly make available prints of BLUE DENIM for screenings. This is a picture that must be seen before any bookings are made or exploitation and publicity campaigns are planned, because it is a far cry from the usual run of pictures. It is strong entertainment with something important to say, ingredients which guarantee it real attention from today’s public which demands those very things. Here is a motion picture that should be seen by every man, woman and teenager in the U.S. The men who made it, Mr. Charles Brackett, distinguished producer and past President of the Motion Picture Academy of Arts and Sciences, and Mr. Philip Dunne, noted director and screen¬ writer, believe that the screen can be candid and provocative about a subject which affects millions of young Americans and their families in our present society. I think you will share my pride in being associated with the release of BLUE DENIM. ALEX HARRISON General Sales Manager THE HOTTEST STORY IN THE I N D U STRY TO D AY li
