The beginning of the talkies in WA. This advert was a reminder that the Premier was the first theatre in the Perth suburbs to install sound, along with it’s neighbor The New Oxford…</p> <h1>Raycophone Sound</h1> <p>Raycophone was perfected by Mr. Ray Allsop, a young Sydney engineer, who came into prominence originally as research engineer for 2BL broadcasting station in Sydney.

  • <p>May 8, 1952 print ad credit Steuben County Historical Society.</p>
  • <p>This newspaper advertisement text announcing the ‘Opening’ of the Drive-In was corrected the following day to read ‘Re-Opening’. There had been no screenings at the Sports Ground from 26th July to 11th October 1941. The reference to summer suggests that the closure had been a winter recess. August and September were the coldest months of the year in tropical Townsville, but the average temperature low of 14C during that period would not discourage inhabitants of cooler climes!</p>
