Oscar Micheaux was a pioneer in producing what were known as race films. 100 years ago this month, his film The Virgin of the Seminole was going to play showing for two nights at the at the Comet Theater in Saint Louis. This was star Shingzie Howard's first movie. I like the name of the Retina Theater.

Unfortunately, because of "a Misshipment of the Micheaux Film Company of Chicago," The Virgin of the Seminole had to be rescheduled to November.
