LOUIS, MO. “BUILT BY BRAINS” You Can't Show a Beautiful Film on a Poor Screen When you buy a Minusa Screen you don’t merely buy it by the square foot. Minusa Screens are ‘‘BUILT BY BRAINS” to suit all the particular re¬ quirements of YOUR particular theatre WRITE FOR OUR LITERATURE MINUSA CINE PRODUCTS CO. ST. LOUIS. MO. NEW YORK SAN FRANCISCO Houser Building 19 W. 23rd Street 117-19 Golden Gate Ave. Attention, Mr.Exhibitor and Operator Don’t be foolish to take the blame for tearing and ripping of new film at the sprocket holes. It is also impossible to avoid scratching because the film is in an unfinished condi¬ tion when released. The emulsion should not adhere to the tension springs and other parts of the machine, which causes all the damage. Exchanges should treat and prepare the film before releasing with the New Patent Process to cure new film. New film cured can be passed through the projecting machine in 6 minutes without danger of scratching or pulling at the sprocket. Theaters running new film should ask the Exchange to install the Rex Film Renovator and avoid arguments. THE REX FILM RENOVATOR MFG. CO.
