real_chaplinReadWriteWeb reports that Hollywood trade magazine BoxOffice has digitized a large portion of its 91 year back issue archive, and is working on the rest. Now nearly 3000 issues of the publication are available online as free PDFs (or page images for more recent issues).

Although they lack metadata or search capabilities, these digital back-issues will still be a valuable resource for scholars, historians, and others with an interest in movie history.
