Sorry for not being more explicit; this show, like most at PSA except
those done by the smallish stereo division, was a 2D show.  Thus
there was a single 2D projector.  I don't recall whether I noticed
the brand, but it was probably either Hasselblad or Rollei.  I did
walk to the back of the room after the show to check the FL of the
lens.  It was 250mm.

The photgrapher, a gentleman from Canada by the name of Peter
Bisset, along with an assistant.

It was a commercially available projector, so prices can easily be
checked at B&H.  I think they are over $2,000 for one projector.

any given screen distance (just don't ask me how to do it!)
