The King’s Ring which is a plastic ring with a mass-produced reflection hologram (Ø1 1/4″, 3 cm) mounted in it.

The hologram was produced in 1972 by Cecile Ruchin and Selwyn Lissack, Holographic Communications Corporation of America in New York. The hologram recorded by McDonnell Douglas Electronics Company in St. Louis.

Reference Dr. Hans Bjelkhagen, one of the worlds leading holographers. Now co-operating with companies developing colour holography with ultra realistic holograms.

Hundreds of historic holograms from two collections will be exposed at a new Hologram Museum. Along with posters from hologram exhibitions, literatures, invitationcards and many other products.

Historic Holograms by McDonnell Douglas

McDonnell Douglas Electronics Company produced several reflection holograms in addition to Marching Band hologram.

Marching Band, Slalom Skier, That´s Life and Marching Drummer are examples of reflection holograms. Pulse large-format off axis transmission holograms were also a part of what the company offered. The holograms were recorded by Clark Charnetski at Conductron now part of McDonnell Douglas.

Historic holograms – produced with the Nobelprized lasertechnique holography – will of course become an important part of all types of holograms at the NEW HOLOGRAM MUSEUM Sweden.

Do you want to become a part of that project?
