Little Boy Blue (1912 film)

The boy, Harold, is at the plate when he hits the baseball through the window of a small cottage.

Once inside the home, he realizes the residents are a couple in their senior years, Mr. and Mrs. Stone.

They find Elizabeth entertaining the Girls' Friendly Society of the Grace Church.

Following their discussion, they decide that the girls' society and the boys' baseball team will give a Mother Goose Bazaar in the church vestry.

A quick search finds the organ grinders performing at a different street intersection.

After a short talk, the street musicians convince the police officer they do not know where Harold is.

According to an article in the July 1913 issue of The Billboard, Lubin had a dedicated scenario department.

In 1910, Siegmund Lubin constructed a state-of-the-art studio on the corner of Indiana Avenue and Twentieth Street in Philadelphia.

It stood as one of the world's innovative studios, featuring stages with manufactured lighting, editing rooms, laboratories, and workshops.

After producing over a thousand motion pictures, the Lubin Film Company was forced into bankruptcy.

These earlier works have not been included in this catalog because of the difficulty of identifying the motion pictures so registered.

[e] The critiques featured in assorted trade publications proved invaluable when deciding to watch or book a newly released movie.

The Little Boy Blue is played by a youngster who has appeared before in Lubin pictures, and who made a hit recently, when as the son of a sick man, he induced a president of an insurance company to come to his father's relief.

""Little Boy Blue" Lubin's greatest, freshest and brightest film of childhood theme, will be presented at the Grand today, heading a star bill, which will include the Vitagraph's masterpiece, "The Greatest Thing in the World."
