More Info →Alex Fletcher Printing- Cinema Advertising Slide

Description

Alex Fletcher founded the Levin Printing Works in 1946 and was printing the town's "Weekly News" from 1953. He sold the company to KBH in 1969, but stayed on as a director and Factory Manager. There is reference to an 'Alex Fletcher' being the President of the Levin RSA in 1956, but it is unknown if they are the same person (but it is likely).

This slide would have been shown during cinema intermissions. Because of the heat from the projector the delicate slides were shown for only a few seconds- not enough time to read everything on this slide! Was it a poorly designed advertisement or a really clever one which showed the audience that Alex Fletcher had so many services you could couldn't read them all at once?
