As far as I know it's named after the football club, for no particular reason. Letratone was made somewhere in Kent, south east England,  but not any more. They have offices in LeMans: www.letraset.com. The film was made section by section under an enlarger, from B&W originals printed through colour filters and yes, obviously the sound would be finally printed 26 frames ahead, to put it in sync.

>And she claims that the optical track and the visual track are the same, but it looks like (and sounds like) she offset the optical track (26 frames ahead) so that there would visual and acoustic synch, even though she fabricated the optical track and the visual track in one go.  If you go to http://www.tate.org.uk/whats-on/tate-modern-tanks/display/lis-rhodes-light-music and scroll down to the video, you'll see at 51" prints of the film strip.  Right?  Wrong?
