This item which I have seen for sale really took my interest with it’s older film theme. It isn’t a classic article for this Blog, I know but I thought it could be included for a bit of fun.

It would be quite exciting just picking out the film of your choice and having your own private showing – in miniature

I remember being fascinated by this sort of thing as a child – still am – I would have loved a projector in those days but of course we could not afford one.

I have one now – both 8 mm and 16 mm – I love the whirring sound when a film is showing – it seems to add to the excitement of the occasion.

When my parents took us to the cinema I remember shivering with anticipation when we went in. I remember this particularly for ‘The Flame and the Arrow’ and ‘Treasure Island’

For Sale in it’s original box by the looks of it – very much of its time but strangely appealing

This original Peep-Scope set comprises the viewer, 10 films and directions. The Films are as follows :-

Our Royal Family

Sports Today and Yesterday

At the Zoo

Dial 999

Olympic Champ

The Dog Show

The Motor Show

Wonders of the World

Fire Down Below

The Directions BELOW – seem to indicate that it works on the same basis as a cine film or a feature film in a projector – this is just a mini-projector I think
