169 The Urban Bioscope has become a by-word iii the Life Motion Picture World, its superiority having been early recognized by Managers of the principal " Homes ol Animated Photography : viz. the Alhambra and Palace Theatre, London. The numerous Types of other Picture Machines formerly used at these Theatres were superseded by the machine invented by Mr. Urban, which instruments have now been permanently installed and the reproductions from which form one of the principal attractions of said Theatres. We name but two of the foremost Amusement Kesorts in the World utilising the Bioscope as an attraction, although there are hundreds of Theatres, Music Halls, Educational Institutions. Exhibitions, and Showmen throughout the World, who " know a good thing when they see it," and have followed suit. It is through our untiring efforts in perfecting Bioscopic Apparatus and Accessories, searching the World over for novel Film Subjects thus creating renewed interest in Animated Photography, and opening up new fields for the application of the invention, that we have developed the Life Motion Picture Trade to its present healthy state.
