Stores Selling Vintage Projector Bulbs

[Computer Nerd Kev]

I've been trying to find stores with stock of vintage projector
bulbs to suit an old Magic Lantern projector with a standard
Edison Screw bulb socket. I'm in Australia, so mains is 240V.

So far the A1/42 seems to be the best bet. There are some on
Ebay, but only 110V and mostly not Edison Screw mounts. I
don't know the type that it was designed for originally, but
they look right and are described as Magic Lantern projector
bulbs.

As such I've compiled a list of stores worldwide offering
vintage projector bulbs (not bulbs for modern projectors):

Denton Photo Optics (UK): http://www.ukcamera.com/denton/projbulbs.php
replacementlightbulbs.com (USA): http://www.replacementlightbulbs.com/
The Light Bulb Shop (NZ): http://thelightbulbshop.co.nz/stage/projector-lamps/
BLT Direct (UK): bltdirect.com/a1-projector-lamps
Technical Lamps Ltd. (UK): http://www.techlamps.co.uk/store?productlist-categories=a1-projector-bulbs
Bulb Source (USA): https://www.bulb-source.com/index.htm
Mr Cad (UK): https://www.mrcad.co.uk/product-category/accessories-photographic/lamps-all-shapes-and-sizes/
UK Lightbulbs (UK): http://web.archive.org/web/20170917114309/https://www.uklightbulbs.co.uk/
-Website seems to be down at the moment. Wayback machine archive is poor.
Came up in search result for A1/42 claiming a match, but page not available.
The Old Film Company (UK): http://www.theoldfilmcompany.com/Page8.htm
Genesis Lamp Corporation (USA): https://www.genesislamp.com/

Denton Photo Optics hasn't got back to me so far about the
A1/42s they say they've got in stock (it's been over a
week). Since then I've found that Mr Cad also has them
listed, so I'll try them next, though their price is a lot
higher. The rest don't have 240V A1/42s or equivalents as
far as I can tell.

I don't really expect to find much help here, but I thought I
might as well make the list available to help future projector
bulb seekers who stumble in here from a search result.

Anyone is welcome to suggest other stores, with or without
A1/42s in stock.
