Here's a 6"x6" Packard with a 3 1/4" opening, along with an original Packard bulb and about 32" of hose.
The Packard is of the type that has two air cylinders - one for Instantaneous mode, one for Time mode.
This shutter is functional, but not super reliable - it has a point when opening that it seems to want to stick at, and another that it wants to stick at when closing. With some practice, I was able to work it properly, but you have to pay attention when you're working it. These things aren't rocket science, so I'll presume some cleaning will improve its operation, but I can't promise anything. What I'll promise is that I'll give you your money back, for any reason, if you'll just pay for the return postage.
Oh....and the shutter also needs fresh felt on the front.
$50 + shipping. Paypal OK.
