Theater Programs and Advertising - Silent Era
Check out the films (including short comedies,
newsreels, and cartoons) that were showing at particular theaters during
the silent and early sound film era. Notice that the big fancy
theaters had big, fancy programs. Some theaters had live stage
shows before or during the presentation. In the early years, films
were just one act on a vaudeville program.
