- Description
- A metal octagonal film reel case with an empty 35mm film reel. a) The metal octagonal film reel case splits down the middle horizontal with two hinges on one side to keep the lid attached and on hinge on the other with a locking mechanism that entails sliding a locked shaped piece of metal through a slit in another piece of metal. On this side of case is two half circle bumps. Along the top of the lid of the case is various labels, mostly illegible. The one near the lock is faded into a pink colour, the legible text reads “2” in handwriting, “ACCOUNT METRO”, “STORAGE NUMBER” “(ST JHON) 3” in handwriting, “SUBJECT” “GANG THAT COULDN’T SH???? STRAIGHT” in handwriting, and “Please Do Not Cover This Label Non-Inflammable Acetate Film FORM SCV 500”. There is a label on side of the case which appears to be a shipping(?) label. On the back near the back hinges is another label that is illegible since its been ripped. The interior of the case is plain with some cardboard-like padding for the reels. b) The empty 35mm reel is silver with circular cut-outs, larger around the edge and smaller in the middle. Along the edge of the reel on both sides is raised text that reads “GOLDBERG BROS.” “20 MINUTE” “35 MM” “DENVER COLO.” “2000 FEET” and “MADE IN U.S.A”. There is around the middle of the reel where the film would be. 4.9 x 38.0 cm

- Description
- Portable RCA [Radio Corporation of America] Model 400 16mm sound film projector and amplifier. The main bulk of the projector consists of blue metal divided into various parts where the motor is, the light bulb [set into a section that can fold away from the body], and the exposed mounting mechanism where the reels sit. Throughout the face are various black plastic and metal switches and knobs to control the projector. On top of the main body is a handle to carry it, on both short sides are metal clasps that hold the case cover in place, and on the bottom are four rubber feet to keep the projector off the table - on the back is an opening in the cover to expose a power outlet and an import for the audio cable. A projector cable how-to diagram is adhered to the inside of the removable cover above two black elastic loops that possibly held spare parts.The external speaker is in its own grey-green travel case with a handle on top and a hinged back that opens to expose the back of the speaker [fronted by a grille on the main body of the case] and storage space. Inside the case is the power cable and audio cable, two spare light bulbs in their original cardboard boxes [one box is empty], and the two support arms for the reels.

- Description
- One box of a dozen 9x12cm Eastman Commercial Panchromatic Films - unopened. The box has a large paper label on the lid containing the manufacturer and development details throughout, as well as “9.80” written in pencil at the top. The edges and bottom of the box are sealed with brown paper adhesive tape, the right-hand side is stamped with “DEVELOP BEFORE APRIL 1923.”Panchromatic film is a kind of black-and-white emulsion that is sensitive to all visible light wavelengths and creates realistic photographs - it could also be used successfully for colour and black-and-white motion pictures as early as 1913. One downside to panchromatic film was that it had to be developed in complete darkness as it was sensitive to the red lights standard in many darkrooms.
