MELACHRINO CIGARRETE BOX

Melachrino is the tobacco shop where two enterprising Greeks, Georgiadis and Tragides met R. W. Paul of England and asked him to manufacture peephole Kinetoscopes on their behalf. R. W. Paul was only too happy to do so and manufactured about 50 of these machines, one of which is in the Cinemathique Francaise in Paris, France. An excellent account of this encounter is written by Nikos Theodosiou, in his book O METANASTIS KINIMATOGRAFOS, Athens 2003, which is written in Greek.
