Description from the seller
Argus 300 Slide Projector & View-Master Junior Projector – with original case and box – 1950s/60s
Description
An interesting lot consisting of two vintage projectors from the heyday of slide and image projection (approx. 1950s–1960s).
The lot includes an Argus 300 slide projector with its original carrying case and a View-Master Junior projector from Sawyer’s, including the original box.
The Argus 300 is a classic model from the early era of amateur slide projection and is known for its robust construction and distinctive industrial design. The projector is equipped with a Projection Anastigmat 4 inch f/3.5 projection lens, a lens that at the time was valued for its good light output and sharp projection. The projector comes with the original carrying case and slide holder.
Additionally, the lot contains a View-Master Junior projector, produced by Sawyer’s Europe. This compact model was developed for projecting the well-known View-Master image discs and was widely used in the fifties and sixties for educational and recreational uses. The projector comes with its original cardboard packaging.
Together, these two projectors form an attractive lot that gives a nice glimpse into the development of projection technology in the mid-20th century.
