[Cool]

GRATEFULLY ACCEPT ALL HELP/ADVICE [Cool]

A very long ago wished for, but not received Holiday gift. My desires for projector as a child went unfilled. Later saved and saved purchasing a $$ pricey$$ camera, but always rented projectors.

Am searching for MY Toy Projector,according to Mettavant
Toy Projectors here in the US were Brumbergers Hollywood Movie Theatre 8mm ;BATTERY OPERATED #1500 http://members.chello.nl/a.wichmann2/brumbergerhollywood.jpg
Later model (when in H.S.)called NEW Brumberger & #1503

The probable brand/model is Disneyland MiniCine made in USA, but same as small British MiniCine's

As child 57 years ago,remember picture on box showing child/children running film Box was shown in drugstore window,1949/1950/1951.

Also candidates but unlikely are
Keystone Mickey Mouse Walt Disney Projector
Kodatoy (can]t read mfg) old ad for Toy MOvie Projector

Unlikely because this was small neighborhood Drugstore Window, not Toy Dept of a Dept Store nor regular toy Store.

WELCOME ALL HELP ADVICE in locating above. Attempts on Ebay have found projectors in Mid-LATE 50s (when in H.S.) [Big Grin]

Original would have been somewhat $$, but wanted NOTHING ELSE
Instead 16 mm Keystone silent was purchased,presented. [Frown]

I was not allowed to touch [Mad]

Dad ran 2-3 times a yr until we got TV.

What great memories, Lynn. Keep googling and Ebaying and you'll likely find that one of these will turn up.

I see now that you've also posted in the 8mm section, which is good -- that's what those cool little projectors are, as I'm sure you know.

Hopefully you can use Dad's Keystone anytime you want now!
