• „.5 It sure is a projectionist s projector — the finest I have operated in my 35 years experience!.'. says WALLY BYRNE, Chief Projectionist Loew's State Theatre, Broadway, New York after a 20-month round-the-clock test of the new Manufactured by International Projector Corp. Distributed by National Theatre Supply PROJECTOR 'The Projector that Runs Like a Song" and Wally should know, because he supervised the test operation of the Simplex X-L mechanism in this ace M-G-M showcase. "The State Theatre is a three-projector installation, but for the past 20 months only two Simplex X-L projectors have been used," says Wally. "This means continuous — and therefore trouble-free operation. The X-L projects the clearest, most brilliant picture I have ever seen — and I've seen 'em all! We've had all types of prints, including Technicolor, run up to 8 weeks straight, 16 hours a day — and the film leaves the projection room in perfect condition. "Only projectionists appreciate fully what this means in terms of top performance." Thank you, Wally Byrne . . . your opinion is shared by hundreds of other top-flight projectionists from coast to coast. INTERNATIONAL PROJECTIONIST July 1950
