Anyone here collect vintage movie projectors/films?

There is no way to stop vinegar syndrome once it begins. You can only separate the offending reels from the healthy ones, as it will spread.

It is a shame, as it seems nearly every reel I come across now has it. This is another major reason to avoid buying from online auctions and only through trusted film dealers.

BTW, is the 16mm B&H being brought in for repair? If so, what issues is it having?
