Dear friends

My colleagues have found recently a Eumig projector during our school's renovation. However we have not been able to identify it (i.e model, exact production year, film gauge.

We would deeply appreciate any assistance

I attach a photo

Although we do not know if the projector works properly as the belts and a reel are missing. The power cable has been worn off. However its switches are in place and they seem to work, the lamp is also in good condition (no signs of cracks in either glass and spiral) the lens has no moulds or scratches and the metal parts bear no signs of rust, which is peculiar enough if you ask me given the fact that it has been stored neglectfuly.

The projector will be put on a display along with other historical equipment that we have found.

Thank you in advance.

Regards
Christos

Hello Christos. This looks like an Eumig PII (as in "two"), a 9.5mm machine produced in the early 50s.

Hi Chris
I think this is a P26 Eumig. a 9.5 version.
Looks clean & original.
A good display item.
