Elmo slide projector [60s]

Elmo slide projector
made in Japan 1960

Looking like a cross between a space ship and a mix master- this slide projector is the quintessential expression of 60s machine engineering.

Elmo- or the ‘Electricity Light Machine Organisation’ [a very futuristic name, especially when said in a robotic voice] was founded in 1921 and made its first projector in 1936. They are still in production today.

This slide projector is pristine- it comes in a plastic case and its original box, has a working bulb and has been tested and tagged. It has a bakelite switch and plug [adding considerably to its charm] – and a single feed slide changer. The body of the projector slides open to accept the slide changer- it’s quite simply beautifully engineered and made.

Display the projector as a funky 60s object- or use it to show slides of the moon landing- it’s for sale: $AUD125
