Henry,

There are good bibliographical references that might be very helpful in

Daniel J. Czitrom, _Media and the American Mind:  From Morse to McLuhan_.

In the 2nd chapter, "American Motion Pictures and the New Popular Culture,

 1893-1900.  This is published by the University of North Carolina Press, Chapel

Hill, 1982.  I use it in an introductory class as one of the texts and when I

looked for citations, I found so many that I suggest you look yourself.  Good

luck,
