[ California's Gold #8007 - Photoplayer
[ Huell Howser meets Joe Rinaudo whose passion is a 1926 Fotoplayer,
[ which uses music rolls like those for player pianos to provide
[ music and sound effects to silent films. Joe spent thousands of hours
[ restoring his Fotoplayer and although the "talkies" made them obsolete
[ in the late 1920s, Huell discovers there is still no better way to
[ enjoy a silent movie than with Joe, his hand cranked projector and
[ his Fotoplayer.
