According to the Philadelphia Inquirer newspaper, the event was held at the Stanley Theatre in Philadelphia during the week of June 22, 1914 and featured showings of such films as In the Bishop's Carriage, The Good Little Devil, Hearts Adrift, and Tess of the Storm Country. The original Stanley Teatre was located on Market Street above 16th and was essentially the theatre wing of the Stanley Mastbaum's Stanley Booking Company (which distributed Mary's titles to other theatres in the Philadelphia theatre circuit.)
