Some of you expressed a desire to see this camera/projector in action. I just got this, and it is in absolutely mint condition. I doubt that it was used more than a couple of times. It is clearly a novelty item from the projector standpoint. I have no idea what quality film the camera would produce. It ran off of 3 "D" batteries. The camera was attached to the base when you wanted to use it as a projector. Here is the URL for the YouTube site:

Thanks for posting this link. I wonder how many were manufactured and at what factory?

I don't have any idea where or how many were made. I believe they were only made for one year. There may have been two versions as photos in the User Manual do not show the three speed switch on the base. In the photos, there is nothing there.
