The Optical Magic Lantern Journal and Photographic Enlarger. xix, ANIMATED PHOTOS. LIVING PICTURES. Splendid results. Before purchasing see FI{UG HES’ Moto Photoscope New Model, New Pattern. No shutter, therefore no flickering, which eclipses all others in the world for beauty and showing the photographs. HUGHES’ Moto Photoscope Will show pretty art pictures alternately with the Animated Photographs, so there is no waiting between the subjects exhibited. HUGHES’ Moto Photoscope Has greater facilities for removing and replacing the films, which with the above are very great advantages, HUGHES’ Moto Photoscope Having no shutter, therefore no flickering, as in the case of other machines, which is an infliction producing eyesache and headache. The public are fast becoming tired of the flickering shadows continuously cast over the living pictures. HUGHES’ Moto Photoscope Is now the most perfect piece of mechanism extant, most beautifully constructed. Nothing to get out of order. A picture up to 16 feet may be produced with W. C. Hughes’ special limelight jet and lenses. It has been exhibited in public, and each picture was applauded unanimously; the people saw the difference between the flickering shadows and this machine, which isa real treat. Owing to the perfect balance of the rotary movement there is no vibration. There are good machines and bad ones: this is a good one, and best for results, and must not be classified with other slim constructions or unwieldy, clumsy apparatus, which are dear at any price. Have no other if you want to please an audience. Illustrated particulars, 2d., post free. $35 10s. Complete with high-class lantern and powerful jets. A fortune to be made with this instrument because it is good. eo ++ #0 #0 = tH W. C. HUGHES, Specialist in Optical Projection, Brewster House, 82, Mortimer Road, Kingsland, N.
