Nilus

(1957)

The  Nilus is one of the simpler/cheaper models of the second Cirse model range. From this model range it is the only projector with a manual rewind. It has the same rewind mechanism as the Astro. In the Netherlands it was definitely the bestseller of all Cirse projectors.

Most Nilus projectors had the motor-lamp switch on the lamp house. Some had that switch on the projector base. Those projectors had a Cirse emblem on the lamp house.
