Thought I'd throw these out on the forum real quick before I go the eBay route:

SOLD - Elmo 912 editor. Great shape and fully working with a bright picture. Comes with manual but the standard-8mm reel adapters are missing. I can throw in a couple generic ones so this shouldn't present a problem.

Bell & Howell 8mm projector model 253AX (I think), asking $20. Black and in overall good condition, signs of usage present. Runs very well (albeit a tad bit loud) and includes cover, take-up reel and a working bulb.

16mm B&H lens sleeve, asking $5. Made of metal, outer diameter about 2.07 inches, inner diameter 1.375 inches, barrel length just over 1 inch... I got this with a Sankor 38mm lens (which now lives in an Eiki sleeve) and the B&H sleeve is useless to me [Smile]

Last but not least... The Gold Rush (Charlie Chaplin), asking $90. Super-8 b/w sound (very nice piano soundtrack), Blackhawk print on 2x800' reels in very good condition. No splices except on reel changes, all original leaders & tails present. Almost no lines/scratches and no other damage. Caveat: This print appears to be in the beginning stages of vinegar syndrome. Very faint VS smell (a treatment with FilmRenew some months ago got rid of most of it, and it's been stored cool & dry in the open since then). A few times throughout the print, the image appears kind of soft, almost kind of fogged, but only for a few moments each time. Other than that, picture/sound are just fine and there is no warping or apparent shrinkage (print runs fine on various projectors I own). Just be aware that this film needs extra care in storing/inspecting it.

That's it for now... PayPal, money orders, checks are all good with me. I ship worldwide, any way you want - just send a PM or email me at jbister (@) neo.rr.com [Smile]

Thanks!

Dan:

Zip code and preferred method of shipping, please [Smile]

Thanks, Jan, zip code is 30052. USPS Parcel Post is good for me unless it will fit in a Flate Rate Priority box.

Elmo 912 is as good as sold, editing first post accordingly. [Smile]
