This is easily the biggest oddball Super 8 thingy that I have in my collection. It is a Besseler model 2401 Cue/See Super 8 filmstrip viewer/projector. It takes a very strange infinite loop cartridge loaded with 50 feet of Super 8 film. It works just like the 35mm filmstrip projectors where you listen to a cassette watching the still frame, here a beep and then the frame changes automatically. The cassette portion also allows to record your own cassette inserting "cues" whenever needed. Viewer screen is a whopping 9" diameter. Also a small cover flips open on the back for projecting on a wall. Unfortunately this unit does not work. I think its the fuse, but i would need a cartridge to use it anyway.

My Technicolor super8 projector uses that "infinite loop" cartridge deal, but it projects, doesn't have a screen of it's own. Your unit looks like the first home pc that came out!!!
