Subject: [Leica] ot-projector bulb
From: Summicron1@aol.com

This is off topic but I'm trying to help a friend -- any of you people know 
where one might find a bulb to fit a Bolex super-8 movie projector?

 It's a strange bulb, all silver looking like frosty the snowman with no arms 
and a headlight in his stomach, a 4-prong flange on the base and is 12 V 75 
W, needs to fit a Bolex 18-5L projector.

The lady needs it for her parents to look at their lifetime collection of 
super-8 movies. We're also scouring thrift stores for another projector (my 
recommended solution to the burnt projector bulb problem) but if anyone knows 
where such a bulb might be found, please e-mail me privately. Price not much 
of an object -- she already blew $20 on something that melted.

Thanks muchly,
