LIHULA CULTURE HOUSE
Lihula, Estonia

The rewind bench. A lot of leaders must be kept for spares because sometimes the projectionists who are working with platters don't splice the leaders back. Or, if they do, they don't tear the old splice, they just cut a new one right next to it. I have seen eight splices right after and before leaders! That's just sad.
