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

You can guard against them — you can save money — you can remove temptation from your ticket booth by installing Ticket Office Devices The Caille Ticket seller automatically registers every ticket sold. This register is under lock and key. The theatre owner holds the key. There is no way that the ticket seller can get at the register. Every ticket sold is accounted for. It removes temptation and discourages dishonest efforts between the party in the booth and the ticket taker. Delivers Tickets Separately Whether a patron buys one ticket or five the Caille Ticket Seller delivers them to him ciit off separately, but stacked together like a deck of cards. Tickets delivered in this way cannot lay across the knives in the chopper. They will drop through instantly. Handles Tickets of Different Denominations The Caille Ticket Seller is built in sections. When it is desired to sell tickets of different denominations, additional sections are added. Each section has its individual motor for direct or alternating current.
