The intricate world of cameras brought to you by {name}

Edwin Molenaar

Extremely rare projector from 1897 by the Lumiere brothers built by J. Carpentier for the brothers, one of the few left in the world, one present in the French cinema museum, serial number 723 with the manufacturer's stamp and engraving with the words Fratelli Lumiere.

In 1897, Jules Carpentier made a special Cinematograph projection that was built in two models: Model A, for moving the films Lumière to perforations (Round claws) and Model B for films to Edison perforations (flat claws). In total, 700 to 800 Lumière Cinematograph factories were built by Carpentier. In 1909, Jules Carpentier workshops, in collaboration with the Lumière brothers, also launched a 35mm camera called "Cinématolabe" but achieved very little success in a market that was already dominated by productions from Pathé and Gaumont.

The workings of the camera can be seen in this video https://youtu.be/o84-zgjd7Is

Item has not been tested in projection though the mechanical system seems to be functional
