Description
C-19222
Pressed and formed metal “Movie Tracer” hand viewer with dual eyepieces and internal film mechanism, finished in a brown painted surface and retaining its original red and gold decal reading “Latest Home Movies – Movie Tracer – Duracolor Films – Audatone Sound System.” The rectangular steel body houses a twin-lens viewing head with metallic trim, a side-mounted film advance knob, and a metal crank assembly with white spool handle for advancing the illustrated film strip. The underside reveals the colorful printed film roll within, visible through the open mechanism, emphasizing its simple but clever mechanical design.
Shows surface wear including scratches, scuffs, paint loss, and scattered oxidation to the metal casing. Original decal exhibits age wear and minor edge lifting. Metal hardware shows light rusting. Film present but untested for full functionality; sold as found.
