In the late 1940s-early 1950s,Martin Lucas Ltd.,Glebe Hills,Hollinwood,Lancs.England brought untold joy to youngsters with their clever optical toys. I first recall seeing Minicine Projectors in the display window of KODAK(Queen St.,Auckland).They were NOT being advertised as toys( to do so would have meant a vendor would incur some luxury tax that prevailed in the postwar period.) So a proud banner declaring,"Hundreds of Feet of Film Replaced by 12 Inches",drew the attention of serious home moviemakers!!
