A Brand New League Leader — different from all preceding ACL leaders. It combines a leader and a "THE END" title.
The new ACL leader combines an introductory animated sequence to open your film and a "THE END" title to splice at the end of a picture. The leader and "THE END" are separated by two blank frames so that it is easy to cut them apart. Both sections of the leader are cleverly animated with professional trick work ... a brilliant combination of wipes, zooms and other effects.
League leaders are given free to every member when he renews his membership. They are given free to every member who gets a new member for the League.
Otherwise, they are offered to ACL members at the following prices:
