Bell & Howell Lumina II projector
One Bell & Howell Lumina II projector. This projector is a three-dimensional object, in a box-like shape. It is made to be portable with a folding handle at the top, and a place to wrap and store the electrical cord at the back. The object is black with gray and orange embellishments and text. There is a light and fan that cool the projector as it runs, and displays the images when on. The projector itself has a feeder reel attached to it, while the film attachment is at the top of the object. The projector is in working order. The front of the projector has the "Bell & Howell" logo. Below it is the model type and number, "LUMINA II KX36." The display scope is directed out of the side, and can be adjusted. The knob next to this focuses the images displayed through the scope. The "Frame" tab adjusts the frame display height. Below are switches that fast forward or reverse the film, display at regular or slow speed, and turn the projector on (either just the fan, or also the lamp). To the left is the "Compatible" switch that denotes "S8" or "R8" film. The bottom of the projector has feet that it sits on. There is also a metal manufacturer label attached to the bottom of the object. It is black and silver, and has corresponding text. "[Logo] BELL & HOWELL / MOTION PICTURE PROJECTOR / Made in U.S.A. Patents Pending / LISTED 626R / DESIGN 1444BKZ / SERIAL NO. 0151102 / 120 VAC 1.8 AMP 60 Hz / MAXIMUM LAMP WATTAGE 80W."
