I am new to this site. Hopefully I am posting correctly.
I came across this very unique, wonderful wierd Projector. I tried doing some research but I couldn’t find anything like it. The only information is on the motor, which says Flexo-Action, Serial # 60020, Merkle & Korff Gear Co., Chicago, ILL, and some other electric rating numbers, however, I am not sure if it is just the motor manufacturer, or if they produced the whole unit. In the black box there is a bulb, connected to a long black cylinder shaft with a brass end & lens. The unit has a chain that rotates gears to shake the other half (I am guessing this is done on purpose to give an effect to the projected image). This unit has an old power cord but I decided not to plug it in, since it is so old.
I have no idea what it was really used for or who made it.
Any help would greatly be appreciated
