[edit] Cleanup
This entry needs to be transformed from the pdf document it was copied from (apparently with permission) into an actual Wikipedia entry. Headings would be a good start. Reformatting the presentation of the individual films would be another. Planetneutral 00:16, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
Hi Planetneutral,
I rewrote most of the text so that it is neutral in tone and unique to Wikipedia, an administrator helped clarify Wikipedia's copyright concerns to me, (fully understandable).... I have also done the same on "Popular Science Historic Film Series," "Unusual Occupations" and "Shields Picture, Inc." (some work on the "Jerry Fairbanks" article as well). I also did my best to cleanup the Inventory lists on all three film series. Please let me know what else I can do to make these strong Wikipedia Articles.
