The FILM SPLICING MACHINE Used by All FAMOUS PLAYERS LASKY Exchanges Famous-Players Lasky have standardized on Bell & Howell Film Splicing machines. In all their exchanges they are experiencing a new efficiency and economy in the care of film. They realize that the use of the hand splicer is costly, when there is a quicker — better — way to splice the film. Splicing by hand takes times. And time is a big factor in overhead. The B & H Film Splicing Machine speeds up the work. The splice is automatically properly located in relation to the picture frame line and the film perforations. Cutting and splicing is but an instant's work and the film ig left as pliable at the splice as at any other point A better splice in faster time — higher quality work and a reduction in overhead! B & H Film Splicing Machines have cut the "film care overhead" of the Famous Players Lasky Company 50%. It is doing the same for other exchanges. And what it is doing for others, it will do for you. Booklet illustrating and describing this dependable, substantial, thoroughly practical film splicing machine will be sent you upon request.
