AS LARGE ONES AND EN DEAVOR TO GIVE ALL OUR BEST ATTENTION PUBLISHERS AND PRINTERS OF "THE PHONOSCOPE" Startling and Wonderful . . . . . . Instantaneous Photographs THE POPULAR PHOTOGRAPH COMPANY, with offices at 32 Liberty Street, have completed the invention of an Automatic Photograph Machine which is perfect in every detail. It is among the prominent mechanical inventions of the age, as it does all the work automatically, that is usually accomplished by an experienced photographer. The machine is set in motion by dropping a dime in the slot, and the exposure requires only two seconds, and at the expiration of forty -five seconds, the photograph comes from the machine complete. These machines are specially adapted for Phonograph Parlors, Railroad Stations, Picnic Grounds, Excursion Steamboats an \ all places of business or amusement. On both sides of the machine, there are arranged what are called side views, and by dropping a nickel in either or both of these slots, other parties can see the picture being developed; this, naturally, giving it further earning capacity. These Automatic Photograph Machines can earn from $10 to $\o per day, according to location, and have met with great success where they have been exhibited. We are prepared to sell City and State rights, and also willing to make arrangements for Agents in certain localities. ADDRESS OR CALL AT THE Popular Photograph Co. 'Room 900 32 Liberty St. /NEW tJORK
