Historical Context
By the 1960s, color film was well established in the United States. Despite the successes of Technicolor and other brands, new processes were often developed in pursuit of something cheaper, clearer, brighter, more naturalistic, or more efficient. Panacolor was just one of these processes.
Panacolor, Inc. was incorporated in Hollywood, California in 1957 and quickly began to earn some prominence in the following years. Panacolor Inc. was devised solely to grow this business, and the company spent years trying to prove that their process was the next big thing in color film printing. At the same time, there was rising interest in making film more accessible in the home, as well as in the industrial, governmental, and educational markets.
An influx of new systems sought to bring feature films beyond movie theatres and into these spaces, and the Panacolor projector briefly developed a niche for use in hotel room televisions.
Despite these two promising ventures, Panacolor never overcame its financial burden and disappeared after the 1970s.
