Hi guys,

We at the loews Jersey are running some scope films for the first time starting next week. We're running Raising Arizona, Way Out West with Laurel & Hardy, A&C Jack and the Beanstalk, and at last It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World. Well the problem is we're looking for a 150mm isco or Schneider lens for scope back up. We can't find one used nor can we afford a new one. Does anyone have one that we could borrow or donate? We are a non-profit. Check out the website at www.loewsjersey.org

Thanks

Bernie

Hi, Bernie,

That's like just shy of 6in, right? You could get away with a 5.75in. And you would need two, no? I will check out a few of the older Kolomorgans we've got in storage.

Bernie,

If Frank can't help you, email me and I'll look in my supply of used lens and see if we can help. Our company has operated the Keith~Albee Theatre in Huntington, WV. since May 1928 which is also a Thomas Lamb designed theatre. Great to see what your group is doing to keep a great theatre alive. www.ourshowtimes.com
