Abstract: MANY of us remember Lyman H. Howe who toured this country for several years, with his famous travel pictures. He began before the birth of the Nickelodeon and continued to be a success for a number of years after our present movie palaces became established. Let us analyze his methods. Most of his subjects were photographed with short focal length lenses. He then brought his audience right into the scene by making his projected picture nearly large enough to fill the average stage opening. It appears that this, together with especially good projection for that time, was the greatest factor of his continued success. The above is cited merely to show that motion pictures of greatly enlarged dimensions are really nothing new.
