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

THE MOTION PICTURE NEWS "Traffic Stopped" Rockefeller and his millions could not do what the two world wide famous police inspectors LEVY AND McGUINESS have done to reform the TRAFFICKERS IN SOLES when they decided to try the ticklish problem, and instead of Guns, Clubs, Handcuffs, Patrol Wagons, Axes, Crowbars, Sensational Raids, Grandstand Play and other paraphernalia of brutal force, to use RIDICULE on the INSIDE, OUTSIDE and all AROUND the WHITE SLAVE TRAFFIC in a 3 reel Comedy-Travesty The result is INDESCRIBABLE— it will tickle you from Head to Sole. The public at large has for such a long time been fed on the so-called revelations of WHITE SLAVE TRAFFIC, that our arch fun-makers, LEVY AND McGUINESS, decided that it's high time for them to mix in the affray — the result is a complete break up of the WHITE SLAVE TRUST. It is positively the greatest three reel Burlesque-Comedy which has ever been produced. It is A CLASSIKER OF FUN Full line of display: One, three, six sheet posters, photos, heralds and slides.
