Most Scottish towns of any size had at least a weekly newspaper, and many had more than one. Moving pictures made fleeting appearances — mentioned as passing entertainments, or in court cases, or when a cinema was being built. This is not a comprehensive sample, but rather a collection of interesting pieces we have found in the course of our research. Due to the focus of our case studies, the main areas represented are Bo'ness, Campbeltown, Oban, and Shetland.
