Description | Cartoon shows a shotgun wedding with the groom (portrayed as a large bag of money labeled "Hollywood's Investment") unhappily marrying a pretty young girl (labeled "TV") while the sheriff (labeled "Justice Dep't") looks on. The cartoon casts doubts on the appropriateness of a government anti-trust suit filed in July 1952 against 12 motion picture companies to force them to allow their 16 mm feature films to be shown on television. |
