Youse [Big Grin] are most welcome .. but, to tell the truth, it was the first link that came up in Google. I did know part of the real history (that Barnum didn't say it, but didn't know who did) and it was interesting to read the whole tale.

Uh .. Phil .. you mean you actually read all of that? heh [Wink] [beer]

That IS "lightly used" for a Model C Printer. Remember, ONE large release of 2000 prints would likely be over 17.5 million feet of film. Most modern release printers run much faster.

Think about it, if you run 10 hours a day, that's almost 20 million feet of film per year through a typical projector used in a theatre.

I worked in a lab and have visited others with hardware 40 to 60 years old purring away...depends on market conditions and maintinance staff. I saw the printer and it looks almost like new.

Pretty good: a buck to buy then 13 bucks to ship. You know where he's making his money - on the shipping.

If he charged $9.95 and 4 to ship, his sales would be far less due to the price scares them away.

Lighter socket is a good idea for charging purposes, but as for lighting up the 'coffin nail'(???)..only if the P/S can handle the draw that the glo element requires.

Yes, am familiar with that particuluar pair of machines. They are in first rate shape and only need reverse scanners and aperature plates to go into daily service. They have been in storage for quite a few years but the bearings and mechanisms turn over like they are brand new. The ad is a bit mis-leafing though they have been in storage for a very long time... longer than I've lived in this area which is about 10 years now.

Richard, how do you find these things? Were you searching for "PEZ" or "Brokeback Mountain" or just "gay sex"?
