Laughs Through Hard Times in Pryor Family Tale
In 1929 Ethan Pryor's antique shop earned $15,000 a year and his infectious laughter lifted Abigail and others. After declines through the 1930s they faced hardship, Abigail sold tickets for a struggling stock company while Ethan hunted for work. A plan to laugh for money backfired until 1938 when business and spirits revived as they laughed their way forward. Released by WNN Features
