6 THE MOTION PICTURE NEWS The PHANTOSCOPE The Marvel of the Motion Picture Field It Uses Standard Films Mr. Exhibitor : No doubt you have many inquiries and calls for Private Moving Picture exhibitions — at homes, schools and before Educational and Scientific Associations. Heretofore you could not take advantage of these many opportunities because you could not afford to carry your moving picture machine or spare your experienced operator. HERE IS THE ANSWER: SEE THE PHANTOSCOPE Weighs 15 lbs. Complete It does the work of the most expensive machine, in a limited way. We do not claim to be able to throw a picture 100 feet with this machine. BUT WE DO CLAIM IT WILL SHOW A PERFECT PICTURE AT SHORTER DISTANCES. THE EDUCATIONAL FIELD— You must realize this is the coming field. Why not get in on the new order of things. We Want You. We can show you where and how you can increase your income. THE PHANTOSCOPE is not an experiment. It is a finished product and come to stay. DON'T LISTEN TO PROMISES— CONVINCE YOURSELF. This is the only practical up-to-date small projecting machine ever placed on the market. The inventor of THE PHANTOSCOPE, Prof. C. Francis Jenkins, is considered and acknowledged by all Motion Picture Manufacturers, Scientists, and Students as being the leader in all that is original and new in the art; and he stands back of THE PHANTOSCOPE with his reputation and success, he having received two gold medals from leading Scientific Societies of this country for his research work and inventing the first machine for the art of Projecting Moving Pictures. So you see, Mr. Exhibitor, when you do business with us — you are not experimenting.
