EUMIG P8 Projector (with R to R facility)

Eumig P8 projectors are probably the commonest projector around today. This demonstrates how popular they were when new. The P8 was one of the first projectors to use a so-called "cold lamp" i.e. low voltage and high wattage. The lamp was smaller, easier to focus and, as it produced less heat, it was easier to cool the projector and film. All of the P8 projectors take up to a 400 ft. reel and were supplied with a wire take-up reel with sprung film retainers. The P8 range all have variable speed.
The first P8 appeared in 1955. s/n 826037.
