NOTE: Due to the nature of online photo reproduction we cannot be responsible for exact photographic color, hue, contrast and exposure accuracy in our photos. While we do our best to display photos that are as accurate as possible, our photos may or may not depict the absolute exact hue or color tone of our antiques due to the many variables in image photography, image exporting, image uploading and viewer monitor accuracy.

We suggest that these artifacts be used for display and not be operated. Please ask for more details on operability of our electrical antiques if operability is a concern. We are always here to help and offer many options for the proper presentation of your Cinema Antiques. Thank You.
