Charles Felton Pidgin

Greetings. I stumbled across a picture of Charles Felton Pidgin this week and after digging got intrigued by his wacky mix of pursuits, and prepared a bio on him. Was just digging into his publisher and found your new article on Carro Morrell Clark, thanks for creating that. It appears Quincy Adams Sawyer was also made into a movie first in 1912, possibly by Clark or her husband (at least Charles Atkinson was the alleged president of "Puritan Special Features Company"). I hope more can be found out about the film, though I am sure it is a lost film.--Milowent • ^hasspoken 23:34, 6 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Yes indeed. He was a very interesting man. Had a good career as a playwright and songwriter. Was employed by the Massachusetts Bureau of Statistics. Started to lose his eyesight around 1900. Quincy Adams Sawyer and Blennerhassett were two pretty big sellers. He wrote a number of books beyond those. Yes, Quincy Adams Sawyer was filmed in 1912, but the bigger one came out in 1922 with Lon Chaney and Blanche Sweet. His positive portrayal of Aaron Burr in Blennerhassett stirred things up. He was a Burr enthusiast.

Copies of QAS

Ken, the Carro Morrell Clark article says QAS sold 500K copies, do you have access to that source you can share with me? I may be missing it in all the book's mentions. I've verified 250K so far (which # also appears in this 2009 book [1]). Egads, I think I saw a picture of one of the billboards somewhere, I need to find that again, apparently that was one of the key marketing techniques she used which was novel at the time.--Milowent • ^hasspoken 17:10, 8 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
