Description
Black and white 6 1/4″ x 9 1/2″ ad for their Filmo Motion Picture Cameras and Projectors. This wartime ad has a picture of a Naval Officer standing on the deck of a ship that is being attacked by enemy planes. In the heat of the battle he is busy filming an explosion taking place on a nearby ship as planes come his way and bullets are throwing up plumes of water in a path beating its way toward him. The ad headline says “Comrades in Arms on every front“ and the text talks about how important these films of actual fighting have become in the efforts to train new soldiers.
