Grass Inst. Photo Stimulator PS3 (Flash Warning)

Grass Inst. Photo Stimulator

I was able to mate the base with a genuine handheld flash head unit. It needed a bit of a clean up and a new Chinch-Jones plug connector, but it works!! Now I wonder what this external control and external monitor outputs are…

Ad-e-quate Im-ages

Technicolor Light meter find.

a small well worn metal box with a twistable round sensor head coming out the top of it. The detector face is green on one side and the back is black and has a ring of interesting texture on the back.
Technicolor 24 light meter
I was able to verify via old phone directories that the address and phone number in the included case are that of William V. Skall
Front of meter
24 in the bottom right of the meter.
Back of meter
24 can bee seen stamped in meter.

This meter came to me via thrift and I had no idea what I had found.

I was lucky enough that the leather case had the address and numbers for a William V. Skall. After using some online phonebook archives in California, I found some truth that this was his issued meter. Skall was an academy award winning Cinematographer/Director of Photography, did work on “Joan of Arc” and even worked with Alfred Hitchcock on “The Rope” to name a few.
