Date de fondation 1 janvier 1930
Astor Pictures was a motion picture distribution service in operation from 1930 to 1963, founded by Robert M. Savini (29 August 1886 - 29 April 1956). Astor, located at 130 West 46th Street in New York City, initially acquired the rights to other motion pictures for profitable re-release. A Billboard magazine article of 8 Jun 1946 stated Astor had 26 offices in the United States.
In 1947, the motion picture periodical Boxoffice reported that the number of reissued films for that year were four times that of the previous year. Many smaller cinemas wished to show double features to attract audiences with a reissued film being the cheapest type of release.
