| Description: | "Introducing SIR CEDRIC HARDWICKE - who will say a few words." (presumably) London. Sir Cedric Hardwicke is sitting at his desk. A telephone rings. He answers - promising to make an appeal on behalf of the Cinematograph Trade Benevolent Fund. He rises and starts speaking into camera. He makes an appeal. On Thursday, March 15th, there is to be a special show at the Empire Theatre of "Midnight of the Stars" [presumably a stage review of attractivie personalities from the theater and movie industry]. For those unable to attend, a special gramophone record [presumably a companion to the show] made by 24 stars is on sale at the Empire Theatre now, featuring 24 American and British stage and screen stars. Money from its sale, one shilling from each record sold, goes to charity - Cinematograph Benevolent Fund. He urges the public to by it. Note: There is no mention of this item in paperwork. It could belong to another issue. | |
