J.F./B.W. Another cinematograph made by Johann Falk (J.F.). The company established a close cooperation with Bing Werke (B.W.) in the 1920s, producing some magic lanterns and cinematographs with a combined J.F. and B.W. trade mark (see 3rd photo). The cinematograph is packed in a cardboard box provided with a label (see 4th photo). Measures 19 cm high, 24 cm long. The wooden accessory is probably a product of home handcrafts and can be removed. |
