Where can I find a VCR adaptor for an old camcorder from the 1980's?

My grandmother has an old camcorder from the 80's with all kinds of home movies that we would like to watch, but they are similar looking to cassette tapes and have to be placed in an adapter that looks like a VHS tape that you put into your VCR to watch them. The adapter broke a long time ago so we can no longer watch our home videos without it and I have no idea what this equipment would be called or where to even find it. If anyone could help me out, it would be wonderful to watch some old home videos of my family again. Thank you!
Answer:

The older camcorder used the smaller-sized VHS tape cassettes called "VHS-C" which were designed for handycam-sized camcorders. To play them in a full VHS player you inserted them into an adaptor in the way you mention. So, what you need is a VHS-C adaptor. I have one that's Panasonic and it's motorised to help loading. You can get them on eBay. Below is a link to one such listing:
