Some DP70 machines have moved from their location and again
are in the neighbourhood of where they were made: in the
village of Geldrop near Eindhoven, Netherlands. DP70's nr.
1820 and 1821 that used to be in the Colosseum in
Vienna were bought by the
Plaza Futura Theatre in Eindhoven that is planning to
move to a new location in Eindhoven and will re-install both
machines in a take-over installation.
Momentarily both machines are stored in Heeze near Geldrop
in the crematorium (!).

Utrecht Bioscoop Catharijne
On this picture you see two EL4000 I took from “Hoog
Catharijne” in Utrecht. # 1912 and 1910. For the moment I am
restoring them for the Swedish Film Institute. I have
developed a three blade shutter system all mechanical with
new gears and this machines are first with this system.
Besides the shutter they get servo motors and accelerated
dowsers and servo motors like the once in Oslo.
