Vol. I. No. 3 THE PHONOSCOPE The International Film Co. 3 Mission Place ai^d 150, 152 Wortlj Street, New York WE MANUFACTURE the finest, clearest, and most durable films in the world. WE TAKE special subjects to order. WE MAKE a specialty of coloring films. Standard length and size. WE GUARANTEE each and every film as we represent it. WE J1ANUFACTURE THE PROJECTOGRAPH The lightest, simplest, and most practical projecting machine on the market; a machine that combines the good points of many and has many good points of its own. Here are some : The total weight of machine complete, ready for operation, is forty-five pounds. For traveling exhibitors, showmen, theatrical companies, who are accustomed to onenight stands, it will be found to be the most practical of all picture-projecting machines. The device for propelling the film is one entirely new and not to be found on other machines. There is no pitman or beater used, therefore no wear or tear on the film. The shutter is also dispensed with, giving the picture projected one hundred per cent, of light at all times. The device for holding the film is one based on new principles. There is no grip or tension on the film direct, yet when projected on the screen the pictures are as steady as a stationary one. One does not see the constant flicker and jumping pictures, as on the cheaper grade machines. The machine is operated by hand-power. The projectograph is mounted on a beautiful oak base, three feet long. The machine stands fourteen inches high, four inches wide, and is a most beautiful working model of the mechanic's skill The machine is on exhibition at our laboratory, where all interested are cordially invited. Price of machine, complete, $200. oq. SEITD FOR CIRCULARS Send your permanent address, so that we can keep you posted on new subjects.
