That is old - interesting with the description - trying work out what 'with glass for shuttering'means

......... could be an early movie projector, not sure

[Mary Anne]

No idea myself but it is very interesting.. Thanks for sharing..

[old dog]

thanks Cat, BP and Mary Anne.....I was thinking along the lines of a movie projector as the handle on the top looks like a winder upperer thingy and the white wheel at the bottom would be a flywheel...so you could wind it up and it would run by itself for a while.

I'd be very careful with its electrics.

haaa....right on Stan, they are a little suspect. or maybe it is a piece of string. :o
