Abstract:

Papers of Howard Le Sieur, a member of the Advertising and Publicity Department who was promoted to director of the department 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 and Coe and Buchanan and Company. Present are extensive files on several films including The Outlaw and Henry V, and a selection of comments submitted by previewers of The Underworld Story (working title: The Whipped).

Note:

Forms part of the United Artists Corporation collection.
