When I was getting together old films to show at a family reunion a few years ago, I found a cheap 8 mm projector on ebay. The bulb can be a problem – make sure it’s functional before you buy. I had to buy two projectors because the bulb on the first one was burned out. As I recall, it was very hard to find a bulb from specialty bulb stores.
Sorry, I don’t have the projector any more to lend you. I gave it to my brother in Canada.
