VICTOR silent projector

Title

VICTOR silent projector

Description

Identical projector to 226 and paired for use to provide continuous projection for full feature films etc. It is believed it was synchronised to the main projector and acted as a slave machine using the same turntable. Quite how this was achieved is not known today as each disc was for one reel of film only presumably thus a stop would have been made to change the disc. Nevertheless a very novel unit for affluent home movie enthusiasts. Acquired totally derelict and restored by Colin Cowles.
