An interesting video for Elmo owners and collectors, nice to see the projectors on the production line, Mark

Its like the old videos and images from the Eumig and Eiki factories, so many were made, thankfully, there are still lots of them around the world. Such a shame all the spares ran out.

Tom,

This was interesting to watch--thank you for sharing this.
Fascinating to see the cameras, lenses and projectors being produced. The 1970's-style background music was amusing too...

Talk about forward thinking, there name (in English) was thought up in the 1920's, and it's the first time it's been explained to me, I reckon this comes from around 1976/77 as we see a GS1200 in the projector line up, really interesting watch, I believe Elmo is still trading in Japan, not sure what they sell these days though!

Elmo are still active.
How about a new projector?

Its good to see they managed to change with the times as did Eiki who also are also still in business making LCD and DLP projectors.
