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

Because you SEE yourself better with a Mirror than any other means in the world. Now the same thing applies when you want to SEE motion pictures, use a MIRROR SCREEN because you SEE the pictures so much plainer, better and clearer on a Mirror Screen than on any other surface under the sun. Besides, it tickles your patrons and makes picture fans. It's a fact. The difference between a motion picture on a MIRROR SCREEN and any other screen of any other kind is the same comparison between seeing your own reflection in a fine French plate glass mirror and in a mud puddle. The 'MIRROR SCREEN' is a Mirror. A magnificent mirror made from the finest polished plate glass that the world can produce.
