The Magnascope

THE term “Magnascope” was created by our organization for popular publicity purposes, and as it is reasonably exact and fairly descriptive, has been retained. Size, however, is not the sole consideration and the word “Magnascope” is in a sense a misnomer. The contrast between the small and large picture is impressive but a very effective illusion of growth is also secured by the gradual withdrawal of the maskings. It is quite possible that the large picture more closely approximates the natural range of vision and is therefore easier on the eye.
