For 55 years, Film Daily was the main source of news on the film and television industries. It covered the latest trade news, film reviews, financial updates, information on court cases and union difficulties, and equipment breakthroughs.

The publications were broken into five parts:

• Part One: Wid's Film and Film Folk, 1915-1916, Wid's Independent Review of Feature Films, 1916-1918; Wid's Daily, 1918-1921; and Film Daily, 1922-1927
• Part Two: Film Daily, 1928-1937
• Part Three: Film Daily, 1938-1948
• Part Four: Film Daily, 1949-1959
• Part Five: Film Daily, 1960-1970
• Series Two: Film Daily Yearbook and Predecessors, 1915-1970

No index of Film Daily currently exists, though Primary Source Microfilm did republish the entire periodical on microfilm in 1990, in a 125 reel set.
