This announcement comes from the office of the Movee Company, who report many inquiries from educators and advertising men, as well as the interest of the United States Government in the larger and improved model Movee Camera. The "Movee" camera is light, compact, and one of the smallest motion picture cameras made using standard size film. Designed to carry fifty feet of film, the camera will make sixteen pictures to the foot of film, or eight hundred exposures in each film roll. By using the projector, the pictures can be shown upon a screen at home, and also pictures can be enlarged and printed on photographic paper, from any one of the tiny negatives, and without having to cut the film to do so. With the "Movee" outfit you can show your own films on a screen to the family and to friends. Any events of interest can be "spliced" and made into a continuous film of 1,000 feet in length, if desired, and be projected on a screen, to provide entertainment. The "Movee" Camera is no larger than the ordinary kodak or hand camera. As a projector, you can stop the machine at any point and view any picture thrown on the screen as long as desired, and without anv injury to the film. This latter feature will be of great value and service to photogranhers. teachers, salesmen, etc. Oliver Company of Cleveland Sells to Institutions THE Oliver Moving Picture Supply Company of Cleveland reports a number of sales of projectors to educational institutions in their territory.
