Educational Film Catalog From the collection of the J f d h 0 Pre|inger ■ library p San Francisco, California 2006 INTERNATIONAL FILM BUREAU 59 East: Van Buren Street Chicago^ liiinois DIRECTIONS FOR USE The arrangement is in accordance with the Dewey Decimal classi- fication. An Outline of the classification will be found on page viii which will serve as a table of contents. Title: The title of the film is given as listed by the producer. If a film is known by other titles cross references are made in the index to the title given. Length: Length is given in minutes when obtainable. Otherwise number of reels is given. Width: Width is given by the figures 16 and 35 and the abbreviation "mm" is omitted as our collaborators agreed that it was unnecessary. Sound: Sound films are indicated by the abbreviation "sd"; silent by "si". Stock: For the 35mm films inflammable is indicated by the abbreviation "f* and safety stock by "nf". Since all 16mm films are on safety stock these abbreviations have been omitted in the descriptions of these films. Price: The price given is usually the sales price. However, if the film is for rent only the word "rent" has been used before the price to indicate this. "Loan" instead of price is indicative of a film sent free except for transportation charges. Date: The copyright date is given when it was obtainable but in some cases the release date is given instead. A date followed by a question mark (e.g. 1929?) means that the date is probably the release date but definite and conclusive information was not obtainable. "Prior 1927" was taken from information given us by the American council on education. Producer: The producer or authorized distributor given is the one now owning or having access to the negative of the film. A list of producers is given following the Index. Distributor: If your local rental distributor does not have the film you want consult the producer for nearest source. Guide: "Guide" is used to indicate the guide for the teacher with which most films prepared for educational purposes are accompanied. INDEX The second part of the Catalog is arranged alphabetically.

COOK AND EVA COTTER RAHBEK-SMITH NEW YORK THE H. W. WILSON COMPANY 1936 Published May 1936 Reprinted October 1936 Printed in the United States of America PREFACE Because educators seem more appreciative of the usefulness of the film in education than ever before the H. W. Wilson Company now offers for films the same service that it has been offering for book selection for many years thru its Standard Catalog Series. The Educational Film Catalog is a selected list of 1175 non-theatrical films, classified, annotated and graded, and contains the necessary information for obtaining the films listed. It is not confined to strictly classroom films but includes those which are available for all non-theatrical uses, making this Catalog valuable to clubs, churches and various educational institutions as well as to schools. Form of Catalog. This Catalog follows the form of the Standard Catalog for High School Libraries in that Part I is a classified list and Part II a title and subject index. 1. Classified List. The films are classified according to the Dewey Decimal classification. In this section is given the full information for each film: title, length, width, whether sound or silent, whether on inflammable or safety stock, sale or rental price, date of release or copyright, producer or authorized distrib- utor, class number, annotation, grading and a teacher's guide, if any. Tho the Dewey Decimal classification was followed it was necessary to make simplifica- tions and modifications. In this the classification in the Standard Catalog for High School Libraries has been followed whenever possible. Each film is annotated in order to make the selection of the proper film easier. When possible the annotations are quoted. As films are not so well reviewed as books, most of the sources of the annotations have been the lists from the various state visual instruction departments. The indication of such sources will show the user where the film has been found useful. Most of the grading indicated is from in- formation given by our collaborators when voting on the films to be included and while they have been used successfully as indicated may be found useful in other grades as well. For further explanation of each entry see Directions for Use. 2. Index. The index includes in one alphabet, the titles, subjects, and, if important, the authors and actors. The classification number is given so that by referring to Part I full information about the film may be found. Subjects have been assigned freely as educators have expressed their belief that even a few feet of film on a specific subject is valuable. The subjects given are those with which the film deals — not the particular courses in school in which they may be used. These often overlap. Method of Compilation and Selection. This selected list is based on the advice of many educators, on a comparison of selected lists of films and on con- sultation with producers and others interested in non-theatrical films. The lists from 22 state visual instruction departments were cut up and titles mounted on cards. Besides these lists titles furnished from the catalogs of nearly 500 pro- ducers and distributors were considered. Tentative lists containing about 3500 titles were sent to educators for votes and suggestions. When these lists were returned the votes and suggestions were transferred to our cards. Altho the majority of films were selected from advice so obtained, others were added which were found on three selected lists including those of various states. No attempt was made to keep a proportion between classes consistent. It is regrettable that undoubtedly many excellent films are omitted because they are not known. The compilers viewed a number of films and included a few which seemed to fill a lack in the Catalog. Films available on 35mm inflammable stock only were omitted. Some films made for advertising purposes have been included when the votes of our collaborators indicated they were useful for classroom work. Those preferring not to use such films will be able to recognize them by the producer's name. Where that does not serve as an indication a note to that effect is given. A number of films are included even tho old because they are apparently the best on the subject available. Producers may well use this list as a guide to their future production because it indicates the present deficiencies in certain fields. No attempt has been made to indicate the physical condition of the film or its value from artistic and technical viewpoints. Future Plans. While this Catalog is admittedly far from perfect, it is planned to revise it in two or three years. At the present time it is not possible to compile a well balanced list because (1) many suitable films are not yet avail- able for the non-theatrical field (2) there are so many films about which very little advice is obtainable and (3) revision of many films now available is needed to make them up-to-date. Supplements to this Catalog will be issued regularly. In these supplements it will be possible from time to time to include films which should have been in this Catalog but had to be omitted for one of the above reasons, and also the best of the new films. Acknowledgments. The compilers and the H. W. Wilson Company are deeply grateful to the many educators and visual instruction experts, especially to Robert A. Kissack, Jr., who so willingly gave their advice and cooperation. A list of those who checked the lists and helped in many ways is given following this preface. Especial thanks are due for the information secured from the educational film survey jointly conducted by the United States Office of Education and the American Council on Education during the winter of 1935-36, wherein film owners throughout the country listed data about their films on special Film Catalog Cards. This film survey is one of the preliminary projects in connection with the estab- lishment of an educational film institute, which is being sponsored by the Ameri- can Council on Education. Thanks are also due to the producers who answered innumerable questions and cooperated in sending us films for previewing. Alice Kurz helped in the clerical work, April, 1936 Dorothy E.
