We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

this may be the first movie projector sound system you never need to fix ! Its sound system can be trusted. It has no electronic tubes to burn out; transistors replace the old tubes. It has no photocell to go haywire; a space-age solar cell takes the place of the old photocell. Its exciter lamp is rated to last the life of the machine. You'll never have to carry spares. This projector won't embarrass you or harass you. It even takes good care of your film. Kodak equips all Pageant Projectors with a spring-loaded film sprocket. These are like shock absorbers, so when you start the projector the film isn't jerked. Sprocket holes and film itself stay new longer that way. These are the only projectors with a reversing sound drum. This means the film rolls with the sound drum when in "reverse," instead of being dragged over it, hazarding scratches. Another thing you can safely do with this projector is reverse it from full speed forward to full speed the other way, in one whack! Kids can't hurt it either, but a child can set it up and operate it. Anyone who can follow a red line can thread film into it. Move one lever forward. Push one button. And you have a sound movie. Brilliant picture. Beautiful, clear, noise-free sound. Incidentally, this sound is instant sound. That means it comes with no warm-up. No empty silence. No awkward waiting. And the speaker doesn't hiss, or crackle, or pop, either. This projector doesn't do anything to distract an audience. Its machinery consists of so few moving parts that it never speaks above a whisper while the show is on. And the show always goes on. You're not left suddenly in a fix. With this projector, there's so little that could possibly ever need fixing. Its name is the Kodak Pageant 16mm Sound Projector, Model AV-126-TR.
