We are proud to have in the Curzon Collection a classic example of one of the best known of portable 35mm Projectors. These projectors were designed and manufactured mainly for use in the Royal and Merchant Navies though they were had other applications particularly during WW2.

The design enabled the projector to be able to pass through the man hatches of the larger deck hatches found aboard ship when it was dismantled. It was a powerful machine with a 1000watt lamp and could utilise a number of different lenses.

This particular model was ‘saved’ and restored by the late Eric Mortimer, a member of the PPT. It is in full working order and it is intended to eventually take the projector ‘on tour’.

All the lovely valves of the GB’N’ Amplifier are illustrated here.
