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.

It will be supplemented, from time to time, by pamphlets that will compile the same information as to stories and plays sub- sequently acquired. These pamphlets, when issued to the holder of this book, should be attached to the inside of the back cover in the pocket provided for that purpose. In many instances one or more adaptations and continuities, with and without dialogue, are available for use in connection with a story or play, although no separate listing of these has been attempted. Following a colloquialism generally used in the motion picture industry, a story is referred to in this catalogue as being "original" when it was written especially for Fox Film Corporation by an employee or especially for use in motion pictures and not published either in a periodical or as a book.

  • 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.
