Author Topic: ...and now - for DP70/Norelco AAII fans - The Web site has been updated: Thomas Hauerslev Master Film Handler Posts: 451 From: Copenhagen, Denmark Registered: Aug 2000 posted 02-17-2001 06:50 PM                        Fans of DP70/Norelco AAIIs, I have spent the evening updating the web site with new serial numbers and installations as well as giving all pages a html brush up. Please find the web site here Does anyone of you have any contacts in South America, Japan and India? DP70s are known to have thrilled audiences and projectionists alike in these parts of the world. All the best and good night, Thomas [ 04-29-2003, 05:04 AM: Message edited by: Thomas Hauerslev ] Thomas Hauerslev Master Film Handler Posts: 451 From: Copenhagen, Denmark Registered: Aug 2000 posted 08-21-2001 03:54 AM                        To all fans of the DP70/Norelco AAII The DP70 web site has been updated once again. The DP70 web site is more than lists of cinemas and serial numbers , it is also about Todd-AO. To inform new readers of Film-Tech about this, the DP70 web site (The project now in its 18th year) tries to locate every remaining DP70 projector. Please report serial numbers to me and I shall update the lists. This is the mechanism serial number plate: I also welcome pictures, which in time, will end up on the web site too. For this “Summer 2001 update”, I have made a new list of machines that have been spotted, but the serial numbers still remains to be recorded. Please see if there are any machines/cinemas in your area. Other web site updates I like to mention are DP70 upgrades and Todd-AO/DP70 cinema statistics 1955 – 1958 Thanks for your help, assistance, encouragement and enthusiasm.

April 9, 1962, THE MODERN THEATRE SECTION has a photo of the projection room of the SS FRANCE and one of the auditorium. September 3,1962, has a photo of the projectors in the Odeon Theatre in Singapore. September 26,1966 has photos of the United Artists Theatre Circuit's new Cinema 150 in Santa Clara showing the auditorium, external view and the projection room.

International Projectionist also featured this sort of picture thing. I believe that the S.S. UNited States also had a pair of DP-70's in it as well.

I've uploaded a description of the DP70 which Philips in Holland wrote in late 1954, early 1955 at this address It's amazing the amount of detail they put into this description.

As you see, it is a list of cinemas currently equipped with DP70 projectors, but I need the serial number of the machines for the www.dp70.com web site. If you can supply the serial numbers or provide internet contact information to the cinemas/projectionists, it would be greatly appreciated. I've recently added all Mark Guldbrandsen´s 27 DP70 serial numbers to the lists, AND all other information many of you have supplied since last fall. Keep up the good work, and please continue to send information and pictures to me.  |  IP: Logged Bill Gabel Film God Posts: 3873 From: Technicolor / Postworks NY, USA Registered: Jan 2002 posted 04-29-2003 09:23 AM                     Thanks Thomas For adding the Picwood and Huntington Oaks Theatres to the site.

The DP70 web site is the latest incarnation of a life-long project of mine (since 1982) trying to find as many serial numbers and cinemas with the DP70/AAII Todd-AO 70mm projector. More than 190 individuals have contributed over the years locating machines for me. They are all credited on www.in70mm.com Don´t hesitate to send me serial numbers and pictures of YOUR machines too Please use: mr_in70mm@get2net.dk I´ve updated the DP70 website www.dp70.com Please check out the cinemas and serial number lists. This time I´ve made som significant changes. I´ve removed the Todd-AO material (to be moved to www.in70mm.com), simplified the navigation and started to add projector pictures. It´s a slow process, but I´m getting there. Cheers Thomas in Denmark PS: It´s so dark in Denmark during winter, that Danes simply have to "waste" time finding DP70s all over the world.  |  IP: Logged System Notices Forum Watchdog / Soup Nazi Posts: 215 Registered: Apr 2004 posted 05-27-2009 01:33 AM                 It has been 1439 days since the last post.  |  IP: Logged Thomas Hauerslev Master Film Handler Posts: 451 From: Copenhagen, Denmark Registered: Aug 2000 posted 05-27-2009 01:33 AM                        "Operation DP70 Serial Number" project started in 1982 and is still very much running!
