Pallas Pictures was a film studio in the U.S. headed by Frank A. Garbutt. Garbutt was a partner of Hobart Bosworth in Hobart Bosworth Productions Company.[1] When Bosworth left in 1915 Garbutt renamed the studio Pallas Pictures.[1]

Bosworth and Garbutt established the Bosworth studio with Jack London to release film adaptations of his stories.[2]

Pallas and Oliver Morosco Photoplay Company used the same studio and personnel. In 1916 Pallas and Morosco became part of Famous Players-Lasky.[3] Paramount Pictures distributed their films and eventually took over the studio.

Lenore Ulric was a star in some of their films. Charles Eyton worked for the studio. Julia Crawford wrote scenarios for Pallas. William D. Taylor directed for the studio.
