I have two Racine Extend-a-Reel super 8mm plastic reels and cans for sale. The reels are 15" in diameter and hold (I believe) 1200' of film, manufactured by the Plastic Reel Corporation of America. Both are in very good condition. $20 each plus shipping.

I believe on this Diameter Kevin, these reels should hold far more than 1200ft of Super 8mm film.

Yes, I think you are right, they are 1600 ft, I believe. Thanks!

Kevin, do you still have these? Are these a normal super 8mm half-inch spindle hole, or the 16mm shaft type? I could actually use the latter! Thanks!

Vincent, thank you for noticing this and linking your auction. I didn't bite because I needed the largest size of which this is one short.

Kevin, reels received and they're beautiful and quite true. And honest 8mm cans are a sight to behold. Thanks for a good purchase!
