Hi, does anyone know anything about a Russian KOMZ 8II-1 projector?

I've never seen one before, so this is new to me, butfun to know, as I have always thought that there must have been some kind of super 8 market, as I have seen Russian super 8 cartoons on eBay.

It was apparently the first Russian 8mm projector and was sold with a camera.

I have checked the bible, "Movie Projectors" by Jurgen Lossau. Although he doesn't mention this projector in the section relating to the USSR, he does finish by saying that a comprehensive listing of all the projectors from the USSR would fill their own book.
