The studio grants Brennan the right to "show the 16 mm. print of the photoplay entitled 'BRIMSTONE' which is herewith furnished by us to you, during the remainder of the term of the copyright of said photoplay and any renewal thereof, in consideration of the sum of Ninety Five and 37/100 Dollars ($95.37)...." The permission was granted under certain conditions, including that the print be only shown "for non-profit, private entertainment purposes in your own home and may not be shown in any home other than your own." Brennan was also forbidden to make or permit the making of reproductions of the print. Also signed by an Assistant Secretary for Republic Productions, Inc. Brimstone, a 1949 Western directed by Joseph Kane, starred Rod Cameron as Johnny Tremaine, Brennan as Brimstone "Pop" Courteen and Forrest Tucker as Sheriff Henry McIntyre.
