This is the most unique Eumig 810D that I've ever seen Ebay Listing I can see why it would be so valuable [Smile]

Hello Zechariah,

I don't think that's an 810D, it's a Mark-S super 8, a very common Uper 8 only projector marketed in the 60's [Wink]

Thanks Jon. I sometimes forget that sarcasm doesn't show up as well online. I wonder, did he just ebay search Eumig and assume it was the 1st model he saw???

Hello Zechariah,

I thought your posting was sarcasm but when I checked the listing I didn't see anything about the seller saying is was an 810D.

At least I was correct in the original assumption. [Embarrassed]

Thanks

Jon

Oh wow, he changed the listing. The title originally stated it was the 810 dual projector super 8 and 8mm.

The starting price of $200 is a bit high for a projector which was marketed in 1965, even if it does seem complete.
They were always a fiddle to make sure the film was correctly positioned in the sound slot.
