The Collection has a number of toy
projectors on display. Toy projectors are simply just that.
Simple, low powered, safe and (in today’s terms) ‘hands
on’ they provided much interest and excitement for
children.
They could be bought from toy shops,
Woolworths, Gamages and similar departmental stores and
often only needed just a battery to operate. Who reading
this can say that it was in this way that their love affair
with cinema and projectors started?
This virtual tour of the Curzon
Collection is a selection from over 200 items on display
in the cinema.
