Anyone heard of Cu-Tone (Auckland New Zealand made theatre projectors?)

[Mathew Bailey]

Wondering if anyone in New Zealand heard of Cu-Tone projectors? I've come across pics of them online,not just the projectors themselves,but also the soundheads & magazines,some of them used with other soundheads & projectors.

I've heard about the brand a few times, but I've never ever seen one in real-life. I guess they were just a local manufacturer, in that short space in time where it was lucrative to so on that remote (set of) island(s).

For some pictures, you can check this article.

Interesting machine. Was kept in good condition and/or nicely restored.
From the way it's constructed, it looks like it may have a barrel-type shutter, like a Motiograph.
