Serials and Series


Book Description

While many fans remember The Lone Ranger, Ace Drummond and others, fewer focus on the facts that serials had their roots in silent film and that many foreign studios also produced serials, though few made it to the United States. The 471 serials and 100 series (continuing productions without the cliffhanger endings) from the United States and 136 serials and 37 series from other countries are included in this comprehensive reference work. Each entry includes title, country of origin, year, studio, number of episodes, running time or number of reels, episode titles, cast, production credits, and a plot synopsis.




Rochester's Movie Mania


Book Description

A new entertainment form - the movies - caused a sensation when the first silent flickers hit the silver screen. Few cities, however, embraced this new medium more than Rochester, New York. And the movie mania bug bit few as hard as it did author and historian Donovan Shilling. This son of a movie theatre owner was hooked after watching his first film, and began collecting all kinds of movie memorabilia, including posters, advertisements, photos and more. He has now dipped into his collection to compile this scrapbook tracing Rochester's Movie Mania. If you like this, keep watching because he has barely scratched the surface of his collection.
