We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

A PERSONAL MESSAGE TO THE AMERICAN PRODUCER I have just arrived in your hospitable country, preparatory to the formation of the Cimena Sales Corporation, an organization which will specialize in the distribution of American Productions of quality in the United Kingdom. The new company will not in any way interfere with my afhliation with Hayward Productions, which organization I am happy to announce, is meeting with wonderful success. Mr. Henry Cundy, my business associate, has accompanied me on this trip, and we have both put up at the Hotel Astor in New York where we will be accessible to the American Producer. Our mission is to obtain the best American productions and we are prepared to negotiate at once for the acquisition of such productions for distribution in the United Kingdom. In this connection, we are pleased to announce that we are working in association with Mr. Walter Hoff Seely, American Representative of the Cinema Sales Corporation, whose offices are at 50 East 42nd Street.
