On Ebay right now, click on this link if you want to buy it.

A genuinely hard to find item as no-one manufactures autoload spools of this size any more as far as I am aware.

I must have bought this for using with an Elmo GS800 that I sold at least 10 years ago, but came across it while sorting through boxes of stuff that I've had stored away for ages. I don't have an 800ft capacity projector any more, so it has to go...

It is in good condition, no warping, bending, or deformation of the autoload 'fingers'. If it proves to be DOA, I will refund the money to the winning bidder, though I would be amazed if there is anything up with it. The case is also in very good condition.

These are great spools but smaller than the original Elmo 800ft spool. This means that the film can miss the spool especially if it's of the Poly type film base.

A good buy though for anyone wanting an 800ft spool and case to house a film.

GS1200 Xenon with Elmo 1.0...great combo along with a 16-CL Xenon for that super bright white light.

Funnily enough I just came across another two. One is a Noris inc. can in VGC, the other an Original Elmo still loaded with a film. Will have to try and work out what the film is, as I've got nothing to view it with.

As Kevin points out, the Elmo reel is about 1cm larger than the Noris.
