The internal photo shows the original transformer and motor in clean condition, which suggests minimal use. It is currently operational, but it is sold as-is given its age of more than 40 years. As an electrical device it should be checked before use, particularly to match local voltage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout This Piece\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eHome film projectors like the Volna-3 are a window into how Soviet families watched amateur movies in the 1980s. A set that still has its matching passport, case and accessory bag is harder to assemble than a bare projector, which makes this one interesting for collectors of Soviet technology and cinema equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolna-3 projector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal leatherette hard carrying case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo transparent plastic film reels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpare belts and accessories in the original plastic bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal instruction manual \/ passport\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eShipping\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCarefully packed and shipped worldwide from Ukraine with a tracking number.
