Thanks for all the info, Richard - very useful, & I'll pass it on.
Did all theatres have two projectors? Or did smaller theatres just have a
single projector and visitors had to suffer a slight delay between reel
changes? (Annoying, but I'm sure projectors weren't cheap!)
How were the reels stored in the cabinets - were they in metal containers?
(the only genuine reel I recall ever seeing was in a cylindrical metal
container, but that was quite possibly just for storage purposes, and the
reel would be removed prior to placing in the cabinet)
