by Julie Lugo Cerra (Author), Marc Wanamaker (Author), Julie Lugo Cerra (Author) After watching pioneer filmmaker Thomas Ince film one of his famous Westerns on Ballona Creek, city founder Harry Culver saw the economic base for his city. Culver announced plans for the city in 1913 and attracted three major movie studios to Culver City, along with smaller production companies. "The Heart of Screenland" is fittingly etched across the Culver City seal. These vintage images are a tour through the storied past of this company town on the legendary movie lots bearing the names of Thomas Ince, Hal Roach, Goldwyn, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Lorimar, MGM-UA, Columbia, Sony Pictures, DeMille, RKO-Pathe, Selznick, Desilu, Culver City Studios, Laird International, the Culver Studios, and such nearly forgotten mini-factories as the Willat Studios. On these premises, Gone With the Wind, The Wizard of Oz, Citizen Kane, E.T: The Extra-Terrestrial, and other classics were filmed, along with tens of thousands of television shows and commercials featuring Elvis Presley, the Beatles, Michael Jackson, and many others.

The price printed on the back was less than the suggested retail on the listing and it makes the margin so low that its not worth taking up self space. SplitShops, you need to work on better rates from your suppliers or up the suggested retail cost and make sure it is not preprinted at a lower amount. There is no way this is sustainable. I love your selection, but as a practical matter I cannot stock products that I don't make any margin on.

Hi Cara, thank you for the honest feedback. You're right. The suggested retail on that listing was higher than the price the publisher prints on the cover, which should never happen. You shouldn't have to absorb that. We've removed the listing and are checking our other titles to make sure suggested retail matches the printed cover price. I'm also sending you a direct message to arrange a refund or credit for this title. We're glad you like the selection and would love the chance to earn a spot on your shelves again.
