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

Why, at the Riviera and the Tivoli theatres in Chicago last week they didn't have room to jam them in. And they are two of the biggest theatres in the country. Throngs crowded the sidewalks for blocks. For the first time in their histories these theatres gave morning shows to take care of the crowds. Adapted from "TOBY TYLER" James Otis' celebrated story of ten weeks with a circus. Directed by Eddie Cline Sol. Lesser presents Jackie
