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.

Once unattached the interior of lid features a black cardboard label with white writing that reads “The Sole Canadian Distributor of this VICTOR SOUND ON FILM PROJECTOR is GENERAL FILMS LIMITED” then a horizontal list of Canadian cities of where offices are, where one would be able to get minor repairs and adjustment or service. Underneath the lid, the projector remains mostly concealed with a few cut-outs in the top where we can see parts of the projector such as the lights, a space where the reel arms would attach, the top of the fan, and another latch in the middle. Once the latch is open the one side of the case folds out. Once this is open the main body of the projector is revealed. There is various switches, projector lens, the track for the film reel, and the animatophone (for sound).

The three switches read “OFF REWIND”, “OFF PROJECT”, and “SILENT SPEED SOUND SPEED”. On the slimmer ends of the case, there are cut-outs for access to controls and plug-ins. The side where the projection would project has one spot for “P.E.C. VOLTAGE”, a knob for the “MICROPHONE”, a plug-in for “MICROPHONE”, and another plug-in for “PHONO”.
