Hello everybody!
I'm new to this forum, and I'm looking to learn about some projection accessories that I have in my possession.
I was told they were made in Toronto, Ontario in 1928 and I believe they are worth some decent money to a collector. I have not counted exactly how many I have because I have enough that they weighed my truck down enough that I had to drive slow with them. I have different sizes and I believe I have two different companies. The companies are "Marble Double Eagle Projection Carbons" and "National Trademark, Another Union Carbide Product".
I've attached pictures of a few rods and boxes, however if need be I can provide more, as well as more detailed pictures.
I also have 10 Marble Exciter Lamps (Bulbs) that were made in Tokyo. I'm unsure of the purpose of these, but they're very fragile.
In the box with the lamps, there is also roughly 20 rolls of clear tape. Unsure of it's purpose, but it isn't scotch tape that you'd get from the dollar store.
They are all in their original boxes, they have never been wet or used.

I'm very interested in learning more about them, and I've posted a thread in the buy and sell section if you'd like to check it out: http://www.thephotoforum.com/forum/...-rods-antique-projector-sale.html#post3168391

If anyone know anything about them please feel free to share :)
Have a great day!
Dan

If you had only three or four sticks, they would be worth a small fortune, but since you have a truckload, they're not worth much.
