Five Stars! -[ HMM ]-

Door window of a Simplex Five-Star 35mm soundhead (part of the projector linked here), a model introduced around the late 1960s–early 1970s. Early models had a windowless door; those were derisively known as “No-Stars.” The window eventually returned; the model underwent other updates over the years, remaining in the production until 35mm projector production ceased when digital cinema projection installation reached critical mass in the early 2010s.

 

Dedicated to Macro Mondays Star Hans Holt (RIP).
