100 years ago this month, the Fox Film Corporation celebrated "20 Years of Progress."

William Fox purchased his first nickelodeon in 1904. He went on to develop a nationwide chain of movie theaters and to found one of the major production companies on the film industry. He overexpanded and lost everything in the Great Depression.
