When I am checking out items at an antique mall one thing I tend to do is open trunks, suitcases and carrying cases. I opened up a rather plain black carrying case and this was inside. What it is a Revere Model 85 film 8mm projector. Hooked it up tonight and it works, motor and lamp. Good thing as the lamps are over $20. I just paid $35 for it. This one has lots of bells and whistles and nooks and crannies. There is even a variable speed control.
Loaded up my Lion and Tiger Fight film and ran it for a bit. Have not tried to use it with the screen yet but the film was feeding well and I could tell the image was good. I even rewound the film. Be kind please rewind.
Looks like you scored a good one! [;>)
