One side of the projector features a switch and silver metal knobs where the tightly coiled spring would be placed to move the film. There is a label with instruction but is illegible due to wear, herringbone-shaped cut-outs below that expose some of the mechanisms of the projector, next to these cut-outs is where the power cord connects to the projector, and towards the front of the projector is another cord that becomes wire that is wrapped around a smaller spool. Along the back side, in raised letters, text reads “APOLLO [vertical] SOUND [horizontal]”. On the very back of the projector are two switches and a black knob that props the back of the projector up slightly. The other side of the projector is the same raised text that reads “APOLLO [vertical] SOUND [horizontal]” near the back, and there is also a a sloped pattern cut-out near the bottom that exposes the fan of the projector. This side features the main part of the projector with the lens, reels, and the track for the film. The top of the projector features a handle-like design.
