Are you looking for sound or silent? I've got an old DeVry Suitcase in reasonable shape, I retrofitted the ancient original motor with a modern Dayton AC/DC motor. Also, if looking for a sound projector don't discount a Simplex SP. I've got one and I am thrilled with it. I didn't get the Simplex amplifier with it but adapting any other photocell amp to it is very simple, I use an old Cinemeccanica amp I bought off ICE and refurbished.

Silent is fine, right now I just want one to review shots and watch old silents.

I'm about to go on vacation. I'll return on the 8th. I'll get you some pictures when I get back. It looks real good, I bought it from a dealer in Arizona and as pristine as it is, I suspect it was in that climate from new.

 

My DeVry is the one with the 1919 patent date on it but it was probably built somewhere in the later 20's. It has a new bulb in it and used spare bulb. It's the deluxe version with a 1000 watt lamphouse. With the Dayton motor I've got close to $225 in it and I'll sell it for that, shipping not included.

Looks nice, have you watched films on it?
