A friend is clearing out grandpa's attic in the San Fernando Valley and wants to find a new home for two 16mm Bell & Howell 285 projectors, plus a few bulbs and minor spare bits and pieces. They've been stored in a large attic for at least 20 years since last run, so who knows? Also, this was not a collector but a Disney employee with access to the "staff library," so they were run regularly but not to death. I will not fire these up or take these on as a restoration project, but they're free to anyone who wants to come pick them up or pay for packing & shipping.

Also available is a 50" Radiant silver-surface floor-stand screen. (That silver surface might be good for polarized 3D projection.)

Please send me a PM if you're interested. Thanks.
