Motion Picture Reviews (1930) MOTION PICTUPE PEVIEW.S WOMEN'S UNIVERSITY CLUB LOS ANGELES, CALIF 1930 Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2016 with funding from Media History Digital Library h tt ps ://a rc h i ve . o rg/d eta i I s/m ot i o n p i ct u re revO 0wo m e The following reviews are written particularly to give an idea of the suitability of the pictures as entertainment for children and adolescents. The age limits are, of course, purely autocratic, but as some limitations were necessary these were chosen, and it is thought that parents can adapt the information to meet the special require- ments of individual children. We wish to call attention also to the few outstanding productions which the committee found of special interest as adult entertainment. It is generally believed that encouragement of fine pictures will be the method of bringing more to the screen, and at the same time our own motion picture attendance may be made more enjoyable. Of such films we recommend “Disraeli,” “Hallelujah,” and “Seven Days Leave.” For children we recommend “So This is College.” Mrs. John Vruwink, General Chairman. Mrs. George Ryall, Mrs. Harold VanMetre, Chairman of Previews. Vice-Chairman. THE BATTLE OF PARIS. Gert- the South from the stage play by Booth rude Lawrence.

It was always my intention to publish it, as I have done, as a working draft on Elwin’s 125th birthday (June 14, 2021). The task was daunting, as I had reason to believe that Elwin might prove to be the second most prolific British singer of his era — a claim borne out so far by my research.

  • Learnaboutmovieposters.Com September 2016
    LearnAboutMoviePosters.com September 2016 Ed-i-torial Part 2: The Neverending Story I got a call last week from one of our sponsors. The first words out of his mouth (before hello) was, “when is that damned book coming out?” Yes, it was due out in September… but NO, we’re pushing for mid to end of October. You remember the Ed-i-torial on this last month (if you don’t – go to the LAMP archive and read…. it’s important!!) We covered the various ways artists were used; the initial studio art departments; the ad-agency process for creating posters; design vs. finished posters; studios removing signatures; logo and title art; and comps and unused art. Right after that, I announced that to help show problem areas, we were creating a Title Index!! What a GREAT idea! Well – I compiled and re-sorted the current two thousand nine hundred and forty one titles in the book. And after glancing over it, my first thought was “WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING!!” This has to be the stupidest idea EVER just before going to press! I thought I would find a few duplicates and be able to quickly resolve them. THERE WERE DOZENS AND DOZENS OF THEM!! We now are over 100 artists or their families that we are in direct contact with. So, I started going through them and emailing various artists to figure out whose was whose and sorting out the two thousand four hundred and thirty poster images to go with the titles. Now we’re getting, “oh, yes, I forgot to give you this one,” and every other change you can think of.

  • Ath001 Chronology of Limerick Athenaeum 2.Pdf
    Introduction The Limerick Athenaeum is comprised of two separate buildings at Upper Cecil Street Limerick. The original building, which now houses the Limerick Vocational Educational Committee [LVEC], was built as the offices of the Commissioners of St. Michael’s Parish in 1833. It was, in effect, the Town Hall of Georgian Limerick. The second building, the Athenaeum Hall was built by the Limerick Athenaeum as a Lecture Theatre in 1855. 1833 MINUTES OF St MICHAEL'S PARISH COMMISSIONERS [Source: From original manuscripts at the Limerick Archives] April 19th 1833: At a meeting of the above, with William White in the Chair, it was resolved that the proposal of John Stokes end Michael Guerin to build the new Parish Offices be accepted, for the sum of'£ 1,070 sterling. The contractors have to expend £300 before they get any money from the Board. Nicholas Hannon is appointed superintendent. Report in the Limerick Chronicle of the 20th April 1833: "The Commissioners of St Michael's Parish, yesterday, agreed with Mr Stokes, architect, for the sum of £1,070 to erect premises for a Watch-House, Board-Room etc in Cecil Street, to be accomplished on the 1st January next".
