VenmoVintage 1950s Bell & Howell 253 AX 8mm Movie Projector – Classic Monterey Style, Solid & Working!
Relive the golden age of home movies with this sturdy, tank-like Bell & Howell Model 253 AX 8mm film projector from the mid-1950s.
Built like a Sherman tank (heavy metal construction, gear-driven mechanism), this reliable classic still runs strong and brings old family films, silent comedies, or vintage footage roaring back to life on the big screen.
Key features:
- Regular 8mm (Standard 8) format – perfect for those old home movie reels
- Manual threading (simple and straightforward once you get the hang of it)
- Bright projection lamp (working – type DJL or equivalent)
- Compact portable design with fold-down arms and self-contained carry case
- 1"f/1.6 lens for sharp, clear images
- Made in the USA – high-quality Bell & Howell engineering
Condition: Vintage used – shows normal wear for its 65+years (some scuffs, minor cosmetic marks on the wrinkle-finish case), but mechanically sound. Powers on, lamp lights up, motor runs smoothly forward.
Great for collectors, film enthusiasts, home movie digitizing setups, or anyone nostalgic for 1950s home theater vibes.
Asking $50 OBO (or best reasonable offer – priced to sell quickly). Pickup preferred in Salt Lake City area, or willing to ship at buyer's expense
