Excerpt from Motion Picture Projection: An Elementary Text Book
In June, 1918, Motion Picture Projection made its first appearance. Its preparation was prompted by the need of a book on the subject of projection that was authentic, up to date and written so the amateur and student could readily understand it. The writer at this time held the Office of director of projection with the American Red Cross and had charge of reconstruction work at the Institute in New York City. The book was immediately adopted by the American Red Cross, the Y. M. C. A., the Knights of Columbus and the Community Motion Picture Bureau as the Official textbook on the subject, with a result that the first edition was quickly sold out.
There was a delay in getting the second edition to the printer, due to the fact that shortly after the Signing of the armistice the writer was com missioned by the, Exhibitors Trade Review to make a study of motion picture conditions in Eng land, France, Belgium, Germany and Switzerland, and for something like seven months the writer spent his time in the aforementioned countries.
