1(notes that Pelham Traffic Officer John "McCormack also made headlines
for his cameo appearance in the movie 'The Invisible Power,' which played
at Proctor's Theatre in Mt. Vernon. Locals Recognized the 'Smiling Traffic
Cop,' playing himself, as he stopped a hurried groom on Boston Post Road
who was late for his own wedding. Mack's big line? 'You'll have to wait
'till I blow me whistle.'").
The Toonerville Trolley Series 1920 - 1923 (Betzwood Studios) (a
series of short films featuring the famous trolley inspired by the H Line
in Pelham) (see The Film Foundation George Eastman House,
The
Toonerville Trolley Series 1920-1923 Betzwood Studios <http://www.film-foundation.org/archives/geh/toon.cfm>).
Note: The Toonerville Trolley films reportedly "were the most successful
and popular films ever made at the Betzwood studio. Based on the famed
newspaper cartoons of Fontaine Fox, they were written by Fox himself. Only
seven of the original seventeen two-reel comedies survive today. Copies of
four have been added to the Betzwood Archive and efforts continue to raise
money to save the rest before they are destroyed by nitrate
decomposition". Montgomery County Community College, Jeckhard -
