I came across this through another thread a UHH'er posted on a futuristic Buick.
This is an outstanding reminiscing site.

Yes, I know the address says "seers". Just something you have to accept.

WOW! What an interesting site on older photo equipment this is.
You might just find a repair or instruction manual for that old camera, projector or other things.
Even has a reference for Kodak bellows and projector bulbs for a lot of projectors.

Thanks, Mogul.
