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

January 2, 1915. ACCESSORY NEWS SECTION III Hiniounccment This announcement to the exhibitor, theatre man and theatrical world, tells the story of an exhaustive, scientific qthAPRACTICAL INVESTIGA TION made by the best and most complete corps of seating designers, construction engineers and manufacturing experts, ever associated since the theatre chair industry began. After years of study on theatre chair usage these men, backed by the vast facilities and MANUFACTURING ECONOMIES of {REALLY) the largest and most comp/efe theatre chair factory in existence, have now with their combined expert knowledge designed and constructed a complete line of chairs embodying a principle that no other theatre chair on the market has. This principle, which eliminates all theatre chair trouble, is the LAST WORD in chair construction. As a result— THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS* worth of machinery will be discarded. More new machinery, dies and patterns together with a new building addition to our large plants are necessary for the manufacture of these chairs.
