Series 7D : Howard Le Sieur papers, 1946-1950.

Papers of a member of the Advertising and Publicity Dept. who was promoted to pressbook and advertising manager in 1945, assistant director of the department in 1947, and to director in 1948 to replace Paul Lazarus, Jr. Although the file mainly documents Le Sieur's work after 1948, some files relate to Lazarus' tenure. Part of the series consists of information on films that Le Sieur advertised, primarily information on official billing for actors and actresses, some reviews, and notes. The second part consists largely of files on advertising agencies such as Donahue & Coe and Buchanan & Co. Included are correspondence, price estimates, invoices and schedules for newspaper and radio advertising, and occasional radio ad scripts. Present are extensive files on several films including "The Outlaw" and "Henry V", and a selection of comments submitted by previewers of "The Whipped."
