1948 vintage ampro compact 16mm sound projector

Description I have a vintage AMPRO COMPACT 16 mm Sound projector. It's from 1948. It is self contained, that is, it folds out of the case and remains attached to the case all of the arms for the reels fold out . The top of the case contains the speaker. The case is about 22 x 16 x 10 inches. It weights about 40 pounds. It tested it the best I could, plugged it in and the lamp works and the motor runs. The only thing missing is the lens. The 2 big switches shown in the one photo are backlit
