Wanted: A 6000' (36" ?) 35mm Split reel. Need not be Goldberg.. just so its straight, mechanically in good condition.

Possible trade.... I have a xenon lamphouse of unknown vintage etc. It is a nice compact looking unit... in a "tank" of an enclosure, green in color, has a vertically mounted xenon bulb which appears to be 1000W. No name on unit or any label. I was told that it is an early unit made by "hughes" which could be true or not. There is no ventilation collar which one would pipe to... it has a ventilation port at the top and a screened port at the bottom where a blower is mounted inside. The xenon mounted vertically has a mirror which by means of a lever acts as a dozer. There is a blower... I have no idea if igniter is self contained or what...there is a standard AC power cord to the blower and two (asbestos ?) cables from the lamp. A xenon is in it, but I have no idea if it functions or what... I can post pictures if someone is really interested. If anyone can identify this unit from my description, I would appreciate your telling me.
