Background
Vitagraph Studios, also known as the Vitagraph Company of America, was a film studio founded by J. Stuart Blackton and Albert E. Smith in 1897 in Brooklyn, New York, originally titled the American Vitagraph Company. In the late 1900s, Vitagraph was one of the most prolific American film studios. However, World War I would mark a decline for the company thanks to the rise of the Studio system. This led Albert E. Smith to sell the company to Warner Bros. Pictures on April 20, 1925. The Vitagraph name had a revival in the 1960s, appearing on the end titles of Looney Tunes shorts between 1960 and 1968, while Merrie Melodies would use the Vitaphone name; both names were switched in 1968 (with Looney Tunes using Vitaphone and Merrie Melodies using Vitagraph) until the series' end in 1969.
