May 28, 1925. Supplement to THE CINEMA NEWS AND PROPERTY GAZETTE. TAYLOR-HOBSON PROJECTION LENSES The superior light-gathering and transmitting powers of TaylorHobson Projection Lenses are most convincingly shown in the projection of difficult and dense films. Lettering and similar subjects are rendered crisp and clear whilst throughout there is an even measure of Illumination right up to the corners of the screen. Where extreme brilliancy is not essential the lenses effect a considerable saving In current consumption. Taylor-Hobson lenses are made in two series, MAXIMUM and UNIFIT, one to fit every machine now on the market. We will be pleased to send you full particulars and prices; ask for booklet "C."

The very last word in Lighting Control for the Super Cinema, the Theatre, etc. A COMPLETE SWITCHBOARD AND DIMMER COMBINED CONTROLITE BOARD. 1. " Controlitc " is the moft compact light controller in existence. It is a complete switchboard and a complete dimmer bank combined. 2. The dimmer and its switch are controlled by one handle. 3. This makes it easy to operate without flashing the lights on or off. The lights, however, can be flashed when desired by using the disconnect switches. 4. All dimmer-switch handles are within easy reach of the operator. 5. Control of light in the entire theatre (stage or house) can be obtained by moving a single handle or slow-motion wheel. Any circuit or group of circuits can be operated in unison with others or independently of others. 6. The dimmer plates are mounted directly in back of the control handles which are easily operated by a short, positive drive (no gears, worm or linkages). 7. No dimmer plates being in parallel, the possibilities of burnouts are reduced to a minimum. There is no fire hazard. WM G El PEL & C°Y-. VULCAN WORKS ST. THOMAS STREET.
