Never knew a Route 66 address could make generally worthless equipment so valuable...

They could have at least taken the time to clean the bird crap and rust off. Oh, wait... that's the "vintage patina" that enhances the value of this fine machinery!

Why would they not add a wide shot of the whole thing?

You know, a 1939 video projector is quite rare.

Come to think of it I have never "hand Cranked" anything but B&W through any hand cranked projector I've ever demoed... its kinda like running colour though one would be sacrilegious! Those projectors will of course also project hand tinted B&W footage [Big Grin] .

Quite interesting device there .. the beginnings of a Motiograph ... which I think were the best machines out there in their day and to use that barrel shutter....

..and amazing how many Motiographs are still in service..

I don't think that's the original Eidophor; note that it's a colour machine. I think the original one is the one Hugh has a picture of on Cinephoto.

The more typical later machine was the one installed at the Odeon Leicester Square:

Hugh, what is the thing between the projector and the equipment rack with the monitor on top? I actually had the chance to play with one of these once, at London Weekend Television soon after they moved into their new studios on the South Bank, very near to the National Film Theatre, but I don't remember there being one of the things in your picture standing next to it.

When was the one at the Odeon installed, and when was it removed?
