Prank Parker and the Sine Bridge Featured in Popular Mechanics
An early 20th century piece highlights Prank Parker and a stunt over a sine bridge a hundred feet above ground. It notes thrilling shots from motion pictures and compares real scenes to fake ones. The January issue covers film realism, wireless dispatches, and the deserts explored in “Relighting the Desert Its Menace.”
