The headline calls it “A Wonderful New Movie Camera that takes Black and White, Kodacolor and Telephoto movies” and claims that it “Weighs only 3 lbs 11 1/2 ozs”. There is a picture of a woman of the time period staring intently through the aiming devices as she holds the movie camera up to her face so that her face is partially hidden but the camera can be clearly seen. There are smaller pictures that demonstrate the Interchangeable Lenses, its ability to film at Half Speed, how it can be used For Distance – Telephoto Effect and that it Takes Movies in Full Color. The text goes into more details about these features mentioning the f.3.5 standard lens, the f.1.9 for Kodacolor and the f.4.5 for long focus, describing the physical aspects of this unit and mentioning a price of $110 for the Model K with f.3.5 lens and $150 with the f.1.9 lens and case.
