Way out of my price range but quite unique.

Interesting find. I once had a set from Hudson , that came from a dealer I bought out.
It included records you would play along with the film program. It had a book that you followed that let you know when to go to the next frame . Sold them back in the '70's.
Hope the guy that has them can use them to help get his kids through college !

I knew a guy long ago that had a set from 1928-29 on Chevrolet.  Can't recall if they were film strips or slides.  I do remember they rolled up in tight little tins the size of 35mm containers.   We viewed one, was actually pretty good.

I have a few for sales 29/30 Chevrolet, amazes me how blatant Chevrolet was even back then to make a sale at whatever cost. I would like to buy the set just for the D.B film but at that price I am not the least bit confident I could get my money back for the rest.

Thanks again Batz for pointing these out, I was finally able to buy just the Dodge film within the set, I did not get it cheap but I also did not pay anywhere near 400 dollars as I have been contemplating.

Buying and then re-selling the set was what I was trying to figure.

Anyway I always am watching out for square blow torches for you so hopefully I can make your day one day.

Glad I was of some help and keep a look out for flat tank torches.
