That 10 minutes flew by. I was hooked. I had no idea they used light for sound. Almost like fibre optic. Great video.

In 1989-1990 I worked at a school in Western Washington and met this gal who was a barber and she mentioned her maiden name was "Fleischer". I spelled it correctly which rather surprised her and asked tongue-in-cheek if she was related to Max Fleischer the cartoonist- it was his niece!!! Small world indeed.

Thank you for this great historical post!

"Sound is a passing fancy, it won't last", declared MGM executive Irving Thalberg to Sam Goldwyn in 1927 after they had watched "The Jazz Singer"...
