Background

The Kalem Company was an early American film studio founded in New York City in 1907. It was one of the first companies to make films abroad and to set up winter production facilities, first in Florida and then in California. Kalem was sold to Vitagraph Studios in 1917.

  • On the opening titles of The Hazards of Helen, the print logo appears below, surrounded by plant motifs.
  • At the beginning of films, the print logo appears below the title card.
  • There is a variant where the print logo is present on screen.
