Auction History Result 6x054 MOTION PICTURE PROJECTIONIST vol 1 no 1 exhibitor magazine October 1927 new talking movies! Date Sold 5/8/2016 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Exhibitor Magazine (measures 8 3/4" x 11 3/4" [22 x 30 cm]; 52 pages) (Learn More) The Motion Picture Projectionist of the United States and Canada, the magazine that began publication in October 1927 with its first issue, and we don't know for how long the magazine ran, because that is the only issue we have ever seen. As its name indicated, it was entirely directed at movie theater projectionists, which was a large audience, because there were many tens of thousands of movie theaters in the U.S. and Canada in 1927, with lots more opening every day! Since each projectionist had to service their own equipment, a magazine like this with helpful stories on how to deal with that equipment (and how to handle the film) was invaluable. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Important Added Info: Note that we have provided a picture of the front cover of the magazine, and also pictures of one or more interior two-page spreads (but we didn't make much effort to find the best ones!). These images should greatly help you judge the overall condition of the magazine. Please realize that sometimes there were only a few ads in each magazine, and sometimes quite a few, but that often the bulk of each magazine is taken up by stories about current productions and other information of interest to theater owners (and I don't know that this information can be found anywhere else or that it has been reproduced in any book since its first publication!). Please know that these magazines are sealed in bags and are ready for shipping, and we cannot answer any questions about them or look through them for you, so please bid (or do not bid) based on the images we have provided. Condition: very good. There are some faint smudges and stains on the covers, and minor wear around the edges. Otherwise, the magazine is in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
