I have some accessories or parts that I think are for a Kodak Carousel 550 Slide Projector -- or for a Kodak 500 non-carousel Slide Projector -- but I need help in identifying them.
The slide assembly has a number on it: 161480. The carousel has a metal insert.

Does any one know what these are?

Thanks!

I've identified the first two photos as the slide changer assembly for a Kodak Readymatic 500 slide projector.
It seems to stick a bit, tho.

If anyone wants it, let me know!

That looks to be a standard 80 slide tray - just a fairly old version. Do you have a view from the bottom and the side of the tray - just in case someone has stuck a Kodak slide retaining ring on another brand of tray?

Center ring just locks it to the projector. Should work on any carousel projector.

Also, does anyone know what bulb the Kodak Carousel 550 takes? I can't find any markings on the original one...

Thanks!
How can I post a response or a request to more than one person?
I'm also trying to identify the bulb that goes with a Kodak Carousel 550 projector.

Also, once I figure out what goes with what, I'd like to offer these two projectors (for parts or repair) to whoever will pick them up (or pay for the shipping).
How do I do that?

Thanks for your patience with all of these questions!

Carol

You can use the multi-quote function, and then inter-leave your responses. You are also welcome to post several individual responses.

In order to ensure that uploaded photos fit, try resizing them to jpegs with quality of 80 and the longest dimension of 1000 pixels.

That looks to be a DEK bulb.
