Abstract: Securing and preparing good historical papers for our Journal is not an easy task. Many months and sometimes many years elapse between the initial search for a capable author and the final publication of the article. The Historical and Museum Committee has served for many years as a clearing house in our Society for such work. Since the early twenties, about fifty articles have appeared in the Transactions and Journal. These papers have documented many important events in the early developments of motion-picture engineering and more recently in television engineering and photo-instrumentation. The following paper by Samuel G. Rose, a member of our Committee for 1963–64, represents another valuable addition to the historical records of motion pictures in this country. It was our original hope about five years ago that it would be an autobiography but this was not realized because Mr. Victor passed away in March, 1961. The task was then assumed by his old friend and associate of many years, S. G. Rose, who has prepared an interesting and authoritative biography of Alexander F. Victor.—Glenn E. Matthews, Chairman of the Historical and Museum Committee for 1963–64.
