Local camera clubs might
well get together and bring
to Washington an unusual
demonstration Of q new
three-screen. three-projector
slide technique now going the
rounds In this country.
First shown at the Photo
graphic Society Of America
annual convention. this
unique technique showcases
around the World In 80
Minutes" the color slide re-
suits Of q To-day photo tour
Of the world made by Don
Nibbelink Of the Eastman
Kodak Co.
The show is projected on
three 12-by-12-foot screens.
yielding q total screen area
Of IL by SO feet. Three pro-
jectors are synchronized for
control from one button. In
addition, o movie protector
screens its segment Of the
program on the center screen.
The three-projector tech
nique permits individual
slides to be shown on any
one Of the three screens. or
In sequence for special effect
from left-to-center-to-right
screen. or three slides in q
panorama effect on all three
screens at once.
Quick Shift to Panorama
Nibbelink's globe circling
pictures make the most Of the
technique,s versatility. For
example, a single slide which
depicts a rural German
church In the middle distance
is flashed on the center
screen with narration which
identifies the church and its
location. The narration con-
tinues, "And this 1t what It
looks like on the inside ="
and all three screens are
filled with q panoramic view
Of the interior.
In q striking use Of the Sc
quence, technique, Nibbelink
illustrates an unusual mode
Of entry to the sporting goods
department Of q large Ger
man department store - O
"side-saddle" bannister slide.
His younger daughter
Jeanne co-operated happily
as q model for the 10 pictures
Nibbelink took before getting
the three which appear in
the sequence. In quick, left
to-center-to-right screenings,
she appears at the top Of the
slide, half way down. and

Art Work by Metzl
AS usual with the Cham
pions Of Liberty series, there
will be two denominations, q
Accent in o single color and
an Scent, the international
surface rate, in red, blue and
ochre.
The design continues the
medallion formal first devel-
oped for the Ramon Magsay-
say stamp Of 1857 by the
three artist members Of the
Stamp Advisory Committee.
IRVINE Metzl, the commit
tee member who prepared
the art work for the Mas
aryk stamp, has revised the
torch and wreath at the top.
From an artistic point of
view the torch Is stronger,
with q more sculptural quail
ity. The higher position Of
the flame also provides
greater color separation,
making 1t easier to handle
the red and blue Of the rib
bon on the Giori press, which
prints three colors from q
single plate.

Of Czech descent, prepared
