This is only the projecting head missing parts. The Edison Kinetoscope came in a protective carrying case that folds open and bolts down onto the lamphouse board. The hand-cranked machine was part of a traveling tent show cinema outfit. One reason they don't show up with great regularity is that often they were licensed to exhibitors and leased but not sold. The oak case came as part of the outfit but is often lost. A complete projection head should have the takeup reel arm, feed reel arm, varous focal length lens to account for throw, and the hand crank to operate the head. The lamphouse was generally a carbon arc which on a deluxe system could be shifted to one side so the light would go through glass slides and a second lens. Slides were a show in themselves with announcements like "Ladies and Gentlemen - please remove your hats so those in back of you may see the presentation!"

Since we lost almost all of our music box spring steel during the flood of 2006, we do not offer much in the way of custom replacement springs for music boxes, as we do not intend to restock all those odd sizes. Some may inquire with the size needed, so we might determine if it is one that we can provide. (The phono steel was on benches \and shelves) We are still in full swing business with the phonograph repairs, parts & services, with a very quick turn time at this time of year.
