Description:
Motion Picture News was the leading film industry trade journal during the 1920s. Founded in 1908 as Moving Picture News -- intended a counterweight to the dominant Moving Picture World -- the News was the voice for the independent, non-Trust, producers. Later Motion Picture News expanded its coverage to the entire industry, supporting the independent exhibitor with objective film reviews, summaries of programs at theatres across the nation, activities of regional exchanges in the cities with regional exchanges, and excellent coverage of the coming of sound and screenings and stage shots at the major New York City theatres. -- David Pierce, 2013

That is due to imperfect projection. The flicker is more pronounced when the picture is viewed at close range. The pirojection of POWER'S CAMERAGRAPH NO. 6A renders a perfect picture without flicker, viewed from any part of the house. WITH IT, YOU CAN ALWAYS FILL YOUR HOUSE CLEAR UP TO THE SCREEN. We quote from recent letter:— Baltimore, Md., 1115 S. Sharp St., Sept. 19, 191S. "We have your G.\ machines with loop setter with direct current — and a silver curtain. What more does an operator want? Our pictures are clear, steady and flickerless. The front rows in our theatre, which are very seldom occupied in anv theatre, are alwavs filled." Very truly yours, (Signed) Freb Meister, Operator. Catalogue D gives full details. NICHOLAS POWER CO., 88-90 Gold Street, New York City THE LEADING MAKERS OF MOTION PICTURE MACHINES.
