Here’s Lantern, a very cool historical research tool that searches “1.3 million pages of digitized books and magazines from the histories of film, broadcasting, and recorded sound.”
How extensive is it? I did a search for Tod Browning and turned up a whopping 2346 pages that reference him.
If you’re doing any research on the early history of film, it’s a real treasure trove.

Thanks for the link! I have some friends who will find this especially useful in their ongoing research on early science fiction and fantasy film.
