It is Fireproof, Convenient, and Pays You a Profit To have your films fully protected against fire — to have the hazards of film storage fires entirely removed from your property — to have a neat, convenient cabinet in which to keep all your films — and to have this security and convenience pay you an actual profit — these are some advantages you get from installing an American Film-Safe. The American Film-Safe The American Film-Safe, the only receptacle of its kind listed as standard and labelled by the Underwriter's Laboratories, is a neat, compact, fire proof filing cabinet for films. It is made of full cold rolled sheet steel with all joints tenoned and pinned together and is practically indestructible. The safe is of unit construction and ma}' be added to or re-arranged at will. It takes up little space and can be moved about easily. Each film is housed in a separate fire proof compartment 'and is suspended on a film carriage which automatically moves forward when the door to the compartment is opened. Reels are always readily accessible for handling. Doors to compartments close and fasten automatically. Each compartment has a bronze label holder on the door into which a card can be inserted so that films can be catalogued or indexed. American Film-Safes absorb abnormal heat from films and maintain them at normal humidity, thereby increasing the life of the films. Exterior surfaces are beautifully finished in baked enamel. Interior surfaces are thoroughly protected against rust. Standard colors are olive green with bronze hardware but they may be had in several other finishes. There are two sizes. Style 1100 with five compartments for five 1.000 foot reels, designed principally for exchanges, studios, laboratories, etc., and style 1200 for five 2,000 foot reels, designed for theatre projection booths. You may purchase an American Film-Safe on the deferred payment plan. Insurance Rating Organizations make substantial reductions in rates wherever American Film-Safes are installed. In some states these reductions pay for a Safe in one year. AMERICAN FILM-SAFE CORPORATION Baltimore, Maryland. Send the attached coupon v| full description and J^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ further information.
