Sawyers Slide Projector Appraisal

Vintage Sawyer's Rotomatic 707Q 2x2 Slide Projector with Accessories and Screen

This is a comprehensive vintage photography set centered around a Sawyer's Rotomatic 707Q 2x2 slide projector, dating to the mid-1960s. The main unit is constructed with a robust metal body finished in a dark grey or black textured 'crinkle' industrial paint, featuring a high-quality f/3.5 Anastigmat lens. The collection is remarkable for its completeness, including eleven circular 'Easi-Load' slide trays or carousels, which are made of high-impact white and grey plastic. A significant highlight is the presence of the original 'Sawyer's Stack Loader' attachment, which appears in unused, 'New Old Stock' condition within its original retail box. The documentation is pristine, including the original Rotomatic 707Q owner's manual, warranty card, and supplemental instruction sheets. The condition is described as 'mint' and 'full working order,' showing negligible cosmetic wear, no signs of corrosion, and clear optics. The set also includes an period-appropriate portable projection screen. This ensemble represents a rare 'time capsule' example of 1960s consumer projection technology, distinguished by the presence of all original ephemeral paper goods and rarely-seen bolt-on accessories in their original packaging.
