Description:
Don't let the title fool you. MOVING PICTURE WEEKLY was the organ of the Universal Film Manufacturing Company. Universal used the publication to promote its films and point of view to American exhibitors. Previously and subsequently titled UNIVERSAL WEEKLY, MOVING PICTURE WEEKLY should not be confused with the two independently run trade papers of the same era, MOVING PICTURE WORLD and MOTION PICTURE NEWS. -- Eric Hoyt, 2015
