This Elmo Projector has seen better days. In the loft? ...under the pigeon coop perhaps [Smile]

You know, i know people are busy these days, but 2 minutes with a rag could make this actually worth more than 100Pounds i think.

I think exclusive or extensive would be better terminology. Expensive is a description that is sure to put off the majority of viewers [Big Grin]

Wow....I have couple of those spools/reels Tom and I paid about $8 a piece. Some of the empty spool/reel prices are a bit insane. Those are very nice though.

Maybe a display piece from decades ago? Like you'd hang as a mobile over a store's film counter? Could be pretty cool.

It'd cost over 40 quid to find out what it is but looks like an empty box to me.
