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

He was listening to a salesman who worKea for a FILM FACTORY, where they turned out pictures as though they were flivvers. AND THEY WERE. We can't speak about automobiles, but we do know that a good picture takes care and time to make. When you make pictures by machine, remember that you can't tell one from the other. PREFERRED PICTURES are made ONE AT A TIME. Every PREFERRED PICTURE is different in plot and in treatment. When your patrons have seen one PREFERRED PICTURE, they haven't seen 'em all.
