Vallen Automatic Curtain Machines
Are Solving an Exhibiting Problem
IN our May 6 issue the Better Equipment Department advocated the utilization of curtain operating devices on acccount of their convenience and economy.
It is with a distinct feeling of pleasure that we are in receipt of a letter from the E. J. Vallen Electrical Company, of Akron, Ohio, advising us that during the past month it has placed nine Vallen automatic curtain machines and that three other outfits have been specified by architects for houses not yet ready to receive them.
The installations reported by the Vallen Company are the Liberty Theatre, of New Orleans ; the theatre of the Isaac Delgado Central Trade School, of New Orleans; Bellevue Theatre, Upper Montclair, N. J.; Rivoli Theatre, Syracuse; Rowland & Clark's Manor Theatre, of Pittsburgh; the Oak Theatre, of Dallas, which installed two machines; the Rialto Theatre, of Fort Worth, which ordered its second machine, and the Weir Theatre, of Aberdeen, Wash.
The installations in the Syracuse, Dallas and Pittsburgh houses were personally supervised by the Vallen Company's engineers.
Repeat Orders
Rowland & Clark ordered their third machine for the Manor Theatre, of Pittsburgh, the two previous installations having been made in the Perry Theatre, of Erie, Pa., and the State Theatre, of Pittsburgh. The Rialto Theatre, Fort Worth, Tex., is now using its second machine.
Repeated orders, such as these, constitute testimonials to the desirability of the Vallen product.
That the Vallen automatic curtain machine is able to perform the service which many of those not acquainted have heretofore considered impossible is illustrated by the 'fact that the installation of the two machines in the Hope Theatre, of Dallas, was made after several concerns had advised Leonard Houghton, the representative of John Wanamaker, New York, who furnished and hung the curtains, that it was impossible to obtain the desired effect of having the curtain operated on a curve, with a radius of ten feet six inches in a distance of forty-four feet.
The Vallen Company guaranteed that its machines would do the work, made the installation, and proved that it was correct, greatly to the .satisfaction of both Mr. Houghton and the owners of the theatre.
