On June 8, 1912, Carl Laemmle of the Independent Motion Picture Company, Pat Powers of Powers Picture Company, Mark Dintenfass of Champion Films, and Bill Swanson of American Eclair, meeting in New York City, signed a contract to merge their studios. The four formed a storied name in Hollywood history—the Universal Motion Picture Manufacturing Company. This is a comprehensive filmography of 9,397 silent-era feature, split reel, and one, two, and three reel films produced or distributed by this new company.
