Description from the seller
Antique Keystone "Radio Junior" Picture Projector, Keystone Mfg. Co., Boston USA, tinplate opaque projector,
USA, ca. 1920-1930
Antique American image projector (opaque projector) from Keystone Mfg. Co. of Boston, for projecting photos, postcards and prints without slides. The device is made of red lacquered tin with gold decorative stripes and an Art Deco band with a geometric motif along the upper edge. On both sides is the original litho emblem "Radio Junior, Trade Mark, Picture Projector, Keystone Mfg. Co., Boston, U.S.A." On the top there are two chrome/bronze vent chimneys with covers, at the front a lens well with a lens in a brass-colored fitting, and at the bottom four black feet. Inside there are two porcelain lamp holders with fabric-wrapped wiring. A decorative and toy-historical object, with a lot of presence due to the vivid colors.
Origin: United States, Boston (Massachusetts). Keystone Manufacturing Co. was a well-known maker of projectors and cinema equipment for home use.
Good, original condition with signs of use: lacquer wear and rust spots on the top, scratches and a soldered repair spot at the lens well. The emblem is well readable. Wiring and fittings are original, with insulating tape applied in a few places.
The entire wiring is original (fabric-wrapped wire); in some places carefully applied insulating tape to protect the wires.
Dimensions:
approximately 27 cm H
approximately 22.3 cm W
approximately 20.5 cm D
Well packed and insured shipping.
Sold as a decorative collectible object. The device has not been certified and was originally intended for 110 V. Use on the mains is discouraged without inspection and adjustment by a professional.
