Kodatoy
 |
Dates: 1930-1934 Condition: 9 Original List Price: $12.00 |
| Hand-cranked 16mm movie projector, intended for use by
children. The $12.00 price included an 8½ by 11 inch screen. In January 1931, a 115v 60Hz AC motor was available for $6.50. From April 1931 to October 1932 the projector was offered complete with the motor for $18.50. The original model used a #1110 automobile headlight lamp. Both filaments of this 21/21 candlepower lamp were used. Beginning in May of 1931, a "Universal" model was produced for AC or DC current, which used a 50w or 100w 120v lamp. The present lamp equivalent is a CDS/CDX. The price of this model was $15.00 in the hand-cranked version, or $25.00 for the motorized version. Extension arms for 400 foot reels were offered in 1932. This Kodatoy was given to me as a gift by a very good friend and fellow Kodak collector. Thanks, Ben! |
