One DP70 (1951)
I purchased this machine in Las Vegas from a motion picture equipment service man in Jan or Feb of 2003. Larry Little Machine Company, The gentlemen died recently at age 94, Larry started with International Projector Company about 1928. An interesting fellow. I wish to install this projector in my home in Henderson, Nevada and need an intermittent sprocket, star wheel, maltese cross, bakelite drive gear, bushing, shims and some small parts for the film gate. (for starters).
The spool boxes are perfect actually look brand new. Surprised to find a web site for this masterpiece of design.
I'll send a sharp picture when I get a chance, its in my
warehouse.

Opened in 1965 - closed in 1985 or '86. Demolished. Was originally owned & operated by National General Theatres until around '72 or '73 when Mann Theatres took it over. Then around 1980, Mann sold the theatre to Century (at the time, known as Syufy Enterprises), and around '85 or '86, they moved the Norelcos from the Fox to the Red Rock. |
