It would be nice, if we had another 35mm projector make like DeVry with the print emulsion on drum. There must be one more. Brenkert is not in, as far as I could detect. Monee? A Russian product?

IIRC, Monees were basically Indian clones of the British Westar machines, which in turn were badge engineered Centurys. Tokiwa in Japan made Century/Westar clones with minor tweaks, too. I doubt if either significantly redesigned the optical sound reader.

I dont think they are in business anymore. They had discontinued projector manufacturing and were just making speakers and amps the last I heard
