    Description

    Here is a D4 vintage Bell & Howell 16mm film projector, made for the U.S. Military. This particular one was surplussed out of the U.S. Air Force and has nice blue travel cases as a result. This is an extremely rugged, heavy duty projector that was used to show films to big audiences. It has two large, powered speakers and is equipped with a tube amplifier. As you can see, everything looks to be in good condition cosmetically -- no signs of drop or other damage.
    I bought this intending to use it as a back-up projector for screenings but now have to sell it to free up space in storage. I have never run film through this projector but was told that it transports film well and very cleanly. The collector I purchased it from in 2019 told me that one of the tubes in the amp needs to be replaced, as it sends sound to the speakers but the audio exciter circuit is not sending voltage to the exciter lamp.
    Local pick-up available in Los Angeles. Shipping will be fairly pricey due to the size of the speakers -- they are fairly lightweight though at 21 lbs each boxed -- and the weight and size of the projector which is nearly 60 pounds boxed. Each case measures 12x18x18".  Shipping is estimated at 0 domestic but might exceed that depending on your location.
    Let me know if you have any questions.
