Very nice set, Godfrey. Good range, as usual. I was impressed by the
Southern Pacific stationary in the typewriter, and would love to have
seen the projector and theater. Got more?

Local folks hanging out at The Florence in Niles ... these guys
were lots of

124 - Motiograph Projector - Niles 2009
This is a photo of a Motiograph Theater Projector, a 35mm Silent
film
projector which is from the turn of the 20th Century. It's hand-
cranked and
uses an arc lamp light source. Each reel of film ran for a few
minutes,
probably not more than ten, as long as the projectionist could
keep up
smooth cranking! On display at the Silent Film Museum in Niles,
the site of
the first Nickelodeon theater in town, built 1913.
