With 6,492 exhibitors as subscribers, we owe this service to our leadership in the circulation field. Producers give us footages and other pertinent information when we review pictures. Sometimes after that they change the length of the films and don’t tell us of the changes. That is how some errors creep in here; though not our mistake, we gladly pay for correction. We appreciate the interest our. exhibitor friends take in telling us about these errors and to save other exhibitors we gladly give out our dollars for the trouble our friends take in writing. It’s worth it to have that sort of friends helping us to retain the dependability leadership.
