Those were the days! - when you could buy high-tech goodies made in Dunstable!

actually, come to think...it could be used very creatively!! especially projecting 'old' images onto something to re-shoot etc ;-)

Susan Leigh		15-Nov-2006 11:39
£10 ?? I would have bought it ;-) and then wait for the 'antiques roadshow' to come to town.

Great find! Buy it, Ray. I'm sure you'd come up with something. And it's good for keeps :-) No regret!

This projector has very interesting distorsion of the image. Maybe you could use instead of photoshop?

I'd buy it..the box is so cool..tomorrows pad could be the inside of the strip master ;)

Guest		14-Nov-2006 22:33

Carole Stevens		14-Nov-2006 21:33
Keep it in the spare room knowing you'l use it one day with everything else in there; Oh no thats me isnt it?

Guest		14-Nov-2006 20:48
Take pictures of pictures for your fellow Pbasers to see that is!

Guest		14-Nov-2006 20:47
You can always take pictures of the projector if it doesn't work. If it does,you can take pictures of the pictures. You can't lose either way,Ray!

Hahaha! Digital wasn't even a notion then.

Dan Chusid		14-Nov-2006 20:01
You'd probably take a picture of it. : )

From the thumbnail, I thought the I was an E...and I was so confused! A StEp Master? In that old and little box, huh? Guess, I should get my eyes checked! ;o)

Naomi		14-Nov-2006 19:37
Well, the box is interesting enough for me. :)

Guest		14-Nov-2006 19:26

Do you get Keystone Cops & Charlie Chaplain on film with it ? LOL!!

Cindi Smith		14-Nov-2006 18:16
Could be worth some big bucks one day! I watch folks all the time on TV making money off of old stuff just like this! Ya never know!

Doug Kessler		14-Nov-2006 17:38
Looks like the device that you had to advance when the record that accompannied it beeped. I think I saw the "Birds and the Bees" one on one of those : )

Guest		14-Nov-2006 16:58

Guest		14-Nov-2006 16:57

Nicki Thurgar		14-Nov-2006 16:50
