A quick note on the sources mentioned at AfD

edit

At this article's recent AfD, User:Noswall59 brought up three sources that were referenced in Eugene Vazzana's Silent Film Necrology (thanks for that btw). One article was from Variety, and the other two were from a source abbreviated "MPW". User:Lugnuts suggested that this referred to Moving Picture Weekly; as it turns out, this actually refers to the magazine The Moving Picture World. (I only found this out after spending an unreasonably long time perusing the Internet Archive's scans of The Moving Picture Weekly.) I also want to point out that the Moving Picture World article "George Bunny a National Star" from November 6, 1920 that Noswall59 mentions is actually about John Bunny's son named George, not his brother of the same name. I've incorporated the other two sources into the article, along with another source I stumbled across from an earlier edition of The Moving Picture World. I haven't taken the time to look yet, but I'm guessing a few other articles from The Moving Picture World could be dug up if anyone wants to beef up the sourcing further.

Wrong George Bunny

edit

@Deanlaw: I wanted to let you know that I removed the image you added to the article a while back, as it appears to be of John Bunny's son named George, not John Bunny's brother of the same name. The caption of the original photo (Exhibitors Herald, 26 March 1921, p. 67) reads: "George Bunny, son of the late John Bunny, now making Capitol comedies for Goldwyn, doesn't like the idea of acting in a lion's den, just to add to the mirth of nations."
