My wife said to me, "You're not watching that guy going through junk in his attic again, are you?" And I answered approvingly: "No, tonight I'm watching him go through other people's trash". You should have been in the room. LOL!
John, since you began the poor's man flea market segment has never disappointed , the problem is we all are yelling at the screen "take that too don't leave it ".
Poor man's flea market always delivers. Great find and thanks for sharing it and your family photos. I have some awesome memories of watching slides with my family back in the 70's.
Beautiful, Scout! The only pictures I have of my wedding are on slides. The photo guy was late and about the 5th time the Monsignor reminded me that he had other important things to do, I said screw the professional photos as I handed my Nikon FTN to my pal. Think of how many great projectors ended up being canned for want of a bulb. But, like you said, anymore, bulbs are expensive and rare. The next time I need a new one, it will probably have a bunch of Cyrillic writing on the box.
I used to love slide shows! My uncle always did them like movie night. He'd pop up some pop corn, get some soda and set the screen up in his living room. We'd look through a couple hours of slides and he always did a comical commentary on the pics.
Nice piece of equipment for sure. I have 3 vintage movie projectors that I am using to convert old family movies to DVDs for modern viewing. All the way back into the 30s! Thanks for sharing
That," Red Flyer Wagon", would come in handy for your poor man's flea market trips toting stuff home. Also, I think that plastic lady might have been a dancer at a gentleman's club in the Bronx.
Great video, ScoutCrafter! 👍🏻 Forgot to comment on Monday but I loved the hammer restoration. The leather handle turned out perfect! I always enjoy the strolls through the Poor Mans Flea Market, you never know what treasures are lurking in the next can. 😅 The AirEquipt slide projector/magazines were a really nice show & tell for today. Was cool seeing the old color slides of your sister at ‘Land of 1000 Animals’ back in the 60s too. Might have to try and track down a projector if they’re not too expensive as I have a big box of my grandparents old color slides in the attic but nothing to view them on. 🙃
Wow. That Airequipt projector brings back memories. My father enjoyed photography for decades, beginning in the 1930s. He used photography in his job and in presentations in his local historical research. He was a very early user of Kodachrome, and we still have these really early slides. Early Kodachrome into the 1940s was not as stable as the later film and tended to fade and discolor with time, but my father always regarded color film as a technological miracle. He used Airequipt for many years, and carried an extra bulb in case one failed. I remember the projector bulbs as being really hot.
Love the poor man's flea market. The battery powered police car reminded me of garbage picking various vehicles and stringing them together to make a train of sorts to pull behind my tractor when my kids were small. Looking forward to doing this in a couple of years when my granddaughter is old enough. I got a bit excited when you started showing your slides, at first I thought they may have been from the North Pole in the Adirondacks, I have old pics and movies of my family going there back in the early sixties, I was way to young to have any memories of the trips.
It was like watching Christmas Vacation when Clark was locked in the atic. That was a great find. Nothing better than old childhood memories. Thanks for sharing 😊
Love that projector, Scout! Innovative design that's so well made. I enjoyed seeing that resurrected from your neighbor's dumpster and saved from a landfill or scrap yard. Crazy the stuff people will throw out that still has value to others. And thanks for the trip down memory lane with Jones Beach and the Adirondacks of old.
Love this John. We watched slideshows all through grade school on those projectors. Plus, I shot a bunch of Kodachrome slides in my early 20s. Thanks for sharing.
Wow that slide project is amazing. I love the look of it, and that paint is like nothing you will find on anything today. Hard to believe someone would throw that out. Great find!
Nice find John. That old projector works great. The Adirondacks are beautiful place to visit. They were much better when i was kid in the 70s but still wonderful.
This was a really nice tutorial as it reminded me of my childhood when mom and dad would bring our the projector and screen and show slides of our latest trip to Florida to my grandparents. Things were nicer and much cleaner than they are today. You brought back a lot of great memories. Thank you John, for sharing this.
Wow John, what an amazing find and from a skip too, I would love one of those, I remember one like that from school, so glad you saved it. I had a "Reflecta Diamator" projector with a built in viewing screen back in the 80s it accommodated special slim slide mounts From AGFA with grooves in the frame that would allow 100 slides per magazine and avoided jammed slides, it was quite expensive at the time ! I really should dig it out and look at some slides, I have thousand of them !
I remember seeing those umbrellas on TV but also believe it or not Chicago's lake shore. Those wagons can be fixed fairly easy. HF sells ones that go for hand trucks. Also you can find the hole mark it and patch the inside. If nothing else coat it with tire patch glue. Wagons don't get the treatment today we gave them. Then again that is why they had hard rubber tires back then. As a guy that goes to flea markets and swap meets you need one with a modified pull to fit your height. That way you can buy bigger items. 🤣🤣🤣 I hauled a set of heads for a Cadillac 500 across a really huge swap meet with one. That short handle is the killer. A guy I was with wanted the heads so I bought the wagon. It was the rare cheap one. Hauled the heads back to the swap space and my son sold the wagon two hours later for a $5 profit. They run anywhere from $25 and up depending on age and condition last I looked. I paid $10 for one for an hours work.
My father had the Argus projector, and it used the same trays. Slide/movie night was always a treat. There is a certain smell from the bulb heat that brings back happy memories. Cool photos and find. Remember to keep the fan running when the bulb is turned off, for longevity. 👍🏻
Unfortunately this projector only has one switch, the better ones had a separate fan switch or thermal switch that would keep the fan running until the lamp was cool. 😃👍
Good find on the projector, one of those back in the day type things, thanks for the poor man’s flea market tour, always interesting, enjoyed watching.
That was fun, I miss the family slide nights. The only downside to slide nights was when we went to a friends place and they would insist on showing their slides from some random holiday AND had to explain every photo AND they had boxes of the damn things. Mum & dad usually came up with an excuse and got kids us out of there. Cheers Scout, Stuart 🇦🇺
Stuart- I have found that only people in slides have any chance of holding your attention. I tried showing pictures of California to my family and they folded after 10 minutes. 😂👍
I have a vintage Argus slide projector of the same design. It uses the exact same magazines. The magazine loading mechanism can be removed from the projector and replaced by another loading mechanism that is designed to load slides one at a time - handy if you have loose slides or not enough to bother loading in a magazine.
Great video 👍 That Poor Man’s Flea Market is Gold 🟡! That Radio Flyer wagon and that police 🚨 Jeep look like they were in great condition. That Airequipt slide projector 🎞 was a great find. Glad to see you found the original case & was able to fix the case to keep the projector in. They sent you a lot of those slide magazines on eBay , that wasn’t a bad deal 👍. Those slides were pretty cool to see of your family’s trip to Lake Placid 🦒🦣🦧in the Adirondack mountains ⛰. Some of those slide images look so clear and in good condition that they look like they were taken yesterday. Another great shot of Old Glory 🇺🇸 flying in the breeze. Well again great video and can’t wait to see what you do on Friday. Have a great evening. 😃👍👍
Hey !John vraiment une belle trouvailles, le projecteur à l'air neuf et en plus il marche. John les diapositives sont superbes. Quece que l'on ne trouve pas dans les poubelles. ❤
Geeze, Scout! I was expecting the next tray! 😄That was a great find. I'm very happy you kept the projector. You did a wonderful job on it. It looks brand new. 👍
Hi Scoutcrafter What a great projector my father used to take pictures like that but we didn't have a projector just a little hand viewer he did borrow a projector a couple of times so we got to see them properly. the problem with those little cars is they are very expensive and beautiful but the kids play with them until the battery is dead then that's it. even if they do play with them, they grow too big to fit in them in no time at all.
Wow that is a beautiful projector and I really love the finish on the metal too can’t believe it was just tossed out on the street but glad you rescued it 👍
Love the projector! Very well built. We use to go to the same places in upstate NY, The North Pole, Storytown, Catskill Game Farm. Great memories. Thanks
This is a great video. I also love to go dumpster diving and i also find some great old vintage items from electric fan to popcorn poppers and more. My favorite video you made was the one where you found the vintage Happy Home metal box fan.
I always loved going back to school after the summer vacation and the teacher would show her action slides to the class. A lot of people don't like looking at peoples home movies or slides I always did , still do. Thanks brought back great memories.
Thats seems to be a real great found at the poor mens fleamarket. That Projector. I cant believe it. And the story behind that umbrella!! ( Jones Beach ) I like stories like those. Thanks for telling me about that beach.
Very nice projector. Glad that was saved from the dumpster. The slides are in very good condition, looks like the colours have not faded. Good to have the pictures of some family history. Dave.
The old slides had such great colours and depth So much better than today’s stuff amazing video John Thank you so much for sharing your family’s memories God bless take care 🇺🇸🇳🇿🗽🪖🦅🇮🇱🙏47 /FJB
John, did your family ever go to Frontier Town or Ausable Chasm in upstate NY when you were little? We made all those vacation trips back in the 60s. You can still see the closed up buildings and over grown parking lot today at Frontier Town, they must have closed 30 years ago. Now people hop on a plane for Disney World. Good memories!
I would have grabbed the slide projector too. I have two already, but you can never have enough of them if, of course, you have a closet full of slides.
I visited Jones Beach around 1961. All I remember is that there was too many people and a great aunt lived near there. The company for the slide projector was just up I-95 from you. Always nice to find a treasure in the trash. Good Luck, Rick
Rick- there were about 8 parking areas and depending on how close to the water you were or if there was a pool the lots would fill up fast. By 11am many lots were full and the beach was packed! 😂👍
I stepped on a broken beer bottle on Jones Beach when I was 4, my Dad had to carry me about a mile to the First-Aid Building!! I'm lucky I didn't bleed to death!! Fond Memories eh!!☻
My dad had a slide projector like this, while my uncle scored a Kodak carousel projector. It was like Betamax vs VHS. I always thought the Arequipped as a better system for storage because the trays packed nicely in a box. And of course the hours long slide shows of each family!
@@ScoutCrafter cuando te mudes Tú? Vas a dejar algo para la feria de pobres o vas a llevar absolutamente todo para tu nuevo hogar ? .... Que pregunta !!! Gracias por tus videos 👏👏
Nice pickup, my uncle was big into slides. He had thousands. Jones Beach West End 2 was my hangout summer of 1964, 65, 66. We would lay in the sun with no protection and try to look like lobsters so it would turn into a tan. That sunburn was so painful!
So cool John. We had those in school, both the Magazine type and the Carousel. I've got a couple of Magazines and half a dozen Carousels but I didn't want to throw them out. Reply if you need any. Thanks for the flashback. Those parks were really popular. In Ellicott City MD there was the Enchanted Forest that we would visit. Great memories.
"This device isn't a space ship, it's a time machine. It goes backwards, and forwards, takes us to a place where we ache to go again..." My Dad has loads of old slides, mostly from when my parents and sister lived in Papua New Guinea, but we don't have a projector so, if we ever look through them, they just get held up to the window. Best thing I ever found out on the street, thrown out by one of the posh houses around the block, was a dyson DC14 vacuum cleaner. All I did with it was replace the filters. A few years later I eventually replaced the power cable since it was damaged when I picked it up and wouldn't stay on if you didn't hold it just right! Got another Dyson, from a local business that had chucked it in the skip, and bought a motor for it just for the fun of repairing it, only cost fifteen quid so, hardly an expensive project.
I was afraid that you weren’t going to give the slide show. Now days we keep all our photos in our pocket or purse and can inflict, oops, I mean share our latest vacation pictures with everyone we meet.
I thought you would've taken that umbrella! I always wonder when looking at those old pictures, everything looks so clean, is that actually the case or is it just because details don't show up as they do on today's pictures and the Kodak effect on the colors...? It annoys me because I wish the world (still?) looked like those pictures.
Alex- It was really nice until the 70’s when it started to change. All of my parents slides from the 60’s looked awesome, people didn’t litter, no graffiti, no boom boxes…. 😃👍
Great score! Sad it was almost lost for hood. I have my dad's Bell & Howell projector and his many boxes of slides from Korea. I need to put them in the B&H cubes and check them out. Are you permitted to have yard or garage sales? All of the items you find are worth money to someone.
That car was really nice- I have seen at least 8 different vehicles on my walks but the best was a Radio Flyer Star Wars Landspeeder! They get big money!!! 😃👍
Out double the money? You found it in the trash! 2 times nothing is still nothing. But it was a great find. Nothing like the old family vacation slide show to drive your friends nuts.
The carousel Machines were high tech- automated feed, auto focus, quiet. Back in the late 70’s there were really nice projectors available if you had the $$$. 😂👍
My wife said to me, "You're not watching that guy going through junk in his attic again, are you?" And I answered approvingly: "No, tonight I'm watching him go through other people's trash". You should have been in the room. LOL!
😂😂😂😂😂

Poor man's flea market is my favourite. What a great find 👍👍👍
great video. That unmistakable noise of the slide changer brought back childhood memories of suffering through parents friends holiday slides.

Crazy the stuff people will throw out that still has value to others. And thanks for the trip down memory lane with Jones Beach and the Adirondacks of old.

I like the Dazor Lamps! I bought a 24" model in the late 70's, for my Drafting Table, that clamps onto the top. They are the best!
Momma don't take my Kodachrome away!
Bet it was nice to reminisce. Thanks for sharing!

The old slides had such great colours and depth
So much better than today’s stuff amazing video John

John, did your family ever go to Frontier Town or Ausable Chasm in upstate NY when you were little? We made all those vacation trips back in the 60s. You can still see the closed up buildings and over grown parking lot today at Frontier Town, they must have closed 30 years ago. Now people hop on a plane for Disney World. Good memories!
Yes! We did all the upstate attractions! My mother always planned trips every year. We never flew only drove. 😃👍
Wow! Awesome find!
I can remember in school we had slide shows in class. I loved when we had them. That brought back memories thanks for sharing.
Another great episode! 🫡
I would have grabbed the slide projector too. I have two already, but you can never have enough of them if, of course, you have a closet full of slides.
Very nice find. Thank you for sharing the pictures with us.
I visited Jones Beach around 1961. All I remember is that there was too many people and a great aunt lived near there. The company for the slide projector was just up I-95 from you. Always nice to find a treasure in the trash. Good Luck, Rick
Rick- there were about 8 parking areas and depending on how close to the water you were or if there was a pool the lots would fill up fast. By 11am many lots were full and the beach was packed! 😂👍
Back in the 70’s we used to go in Lake George,NY to Frontier Town and Story Town great memories , I could be mistaking about frontier town
I stepped on a broken beer bottle on Jones Beach when I was 4, my Dad had to carry me about a mile to the First-Aid Building!! I'm lucky I didn't bleed to death!! Fond Memories eh!!☻
Remember the boardwalk? It was untreated lumber and sometimes you would get a huge splinter! 😂
I enjoyed this episode.
Wow, that projector took me back to elementary school in the mid 1960's.
Never seen that before. It was super cool
My dad had a slide projector like this, while my uncle scored a Kodak carousel projector. It was like Betamax vs VHS. I always thought the Arequipped as a better system for storage because the trays packed nicely in a box. And of course the hours long slide shows of each family!
Excellent.
Great find

I love the flea market stuff, but I’m screaming at the TV, get the flyer 😝😝😝great vid
I have a couple but loathe the pneumatic tires! They are always either low on air or flat! 😂👍
@@ScoutCrafterthat’s true, hope you do a video on them 😊😊😊
Great to look back at the memories
Nice pickup, my uncle was big into slides. He had thousands.
Jones Beach West End 2 was my hangout summer of 1964, 65, 66. We would lay in the sun with no protection and try to look like lobsters so it would turn into a tan. That sunburn was so painful!
Frank- Me too! In fact my car caught fire in the parking lot of west end two! 😂. I saved it and drove it home! 😂😂😂
We lived in Levittown until August 1969, and I used to like the space and boat playgrounds at Jones Beach. Does anyone remember the rocket slide?
Looks like the North Pole in Wilmington, New York up the Veterans Memorial Highway on the side of Whiteface Mountain.
totally awesome!!
So cool John. We had those in school, both the Magazine type and the Carousel. I've got a couple of Magazines and half a dozen Carousels but I didn't want to throw them out. Reply if you need any. Thanks for the flashback. Those parks were really popular. In Ellicott City MD there was the Enchanted Forest that we would visit. Great memories.
Back in the 60’s there were quite a few local attractions. Low cost airfare put many out of business. 😃👍
@@ScoutCrafter You're right!
Memories 😊
That’s why I’ve always enjoyed garbage picking! So many treasures to be found!
Nice.
Love the flea market

Did you take the umbrella? Great episode.
No- It was broken, Repairable but I haven’t used an umbrella in 40 years! 😂👍
I'm like a little kid, I get way too memorized by something like that mechanism, not only does it advance but the sound it makes is wondrous.
I thought you would've taken that umbrella! I always wonder when looking at those old pictures, everything looks so clean, is that actually the case or is it just because details don't show up as they do on today's pictures and the Kodak effect on the colors...? It annoys me because I wish the world (still?) looked like those pictures.
Alex- It was really nice until the 70’s when it started to change. All of my parents slides from the 60’s looked awesome, people didn’t litter, no graffiti, no boom boxes…. 😃👍
As I recall, the slides have to be inserted upside-down and backwards.
Yes, the projector inverts the image. Depending on your processor the mount could be different so you had to know your slides and projector. 😃👍
Great score! Sad it was almost lost for hood. I have my dad's Bell & Howell projector and his many boxes of slides from Korea. I need to put them in the B&H cubes and check them out.
Are you permitted to have yard or garage sales? All of the items you find are worth money to someone.
Yes but lots of times when people move they give away what they can and toss the rest. 😃👍
Ah yes Jones Beach. Field 6 would be packed even in an ice age.
West end 2 was for introverts like me. 😂👍
Im always amazed at what people throw out
That cool police car was $500 new and there is a $20 board and a new battery and you would be good to go.
That car was really nice- I have seen at least 8 different vehicles on my walks but the best was a Radio Flyer Star Wars Landspeeder! They get big money!!! 😃👍
I would have grab up the radio flyer wagon every time
Gotcha 👍👍🔩🔩
So you can go along and pick up the garbage? That looks awesome.
Yes- I mainly look for homes that are selling or people are moving- That’s where you find the real gold. 😂👍
@@ScoutCrafter Sounds like a good idea
Out double the money? You found it in the trash! 2 times nothing is still nothing. But it was a great find. Nothing like the old family vacation slide show to drive your friends nuts.
Kodachrome lasts a very long time ! The machine is nice but I prefer my Kodak Carousel.
The carousel
Machines were high tech- automated feed, auto focus, quiet. Back in the late 70’s there were really nice projectors available if you had the $$$. 😂👍
You need a bulb supply
