JERRY PULLS THE STRINGS

The story deals with the activities and achievements of two young people. The major portion of the film consists of a series of puppet plays. The animated portion of the puppet plays is a modern coffee packing plant in operation. No brands and products are shown. The vacuum tins used are simply marked "Coffee." "Does not fit curriculum. May go in puppet study. Useless for coffee study." Collaborator. "Indirect advertising not in least objectionable, unless the subject of coffee is not to be studied by children. An excellently produced story picture, embodying two main objectives: the story of coffee and its place in modern world (very good), and an exciting introduction to puppet construction and manipulation. Our art classes reacted unusually well. Method of presentation is unique and perfectly adapted to junior high school students." J. Frederic Andrews.
