Ritz Leicester Square 1940
Note the Pyreen fire extinguisher, as mentioned on the Classic, South Croydon page
This is the long tube standing between the projector and the wall mounted resistance
The two black boxes mounted on the base of the tube were cut off switches to the projector motor and arc lamp
The offset tube at the top is the cylinder of powder with the flexible tube going to the top of the mech to smother any nitrate film fire
Also note the unguarded projector drive belts
Not much health and safety at this time
