Antique Bell & Howell Filmo Model 70A 16mm Movie Camera with Lens & Key

Description: Up for bid is an original antique pre-owned Bell & Howell Filmo Model 70A 16mm Movie Camera with Lens & Key. Found at an estate sale of a collector of vintage and antique cameras. This model was made in the early 1920’s and was Bell & Howell's flagship amateur camera model for more than half a century! Cameras like this one were used by military combat cameramen from World War II through to the Vietnam War. This Bell & Howell 16mm Filmo 70A movie camera with Taylor-Hobson & Cooke King No. 1697361" f/1.8 Cinema lens. Has the original winding key and leather strap. The film chamber is clean. The cover latches work correctly, and the lip of the chamber is in good shape. The film gate looks in good order. The footage indicator is difficult to move, but I am not familiar with this camera to know how things should work. The viewfinder is clear and easy to see through. The lens is clear and has a lens cap. I’ve not been able to get the camera to run, but given the fact that the camera is roughly 100 years old it may need just a tune up. Selling as is. It weighs over 5 pounds and measures about 8 1/4 inches tall and 7 inches wide. The tripod is not included. This is historic and a solid example of one of the most significant movie cameras out there. Please see pictures for more condition details or e-mail with any questions. Thank you for looking. Happy bidding!!! Items condition: Please take a moment to enlarge & view all the detailed photos, as they are the true description for the condition of this item and override any written description above. I'm selling mostly used items purchased at Estate Sales. I try to describe the best I can but the photos capture what may have been missed in the written description. I try to describe everything to the best of my knowledge but very few things I sell are Brand New and it will be stated in the listing if they are new. If it looks like a stain, nick, or fading in the photographs then it probably is, but I believe the condition of these items is part of their charm. Payment: Prompt payment following the close of the auction is appreciated. Please note that an unpaid item case will automatically be opened by eBay after 4 days (unless other payment arrangements are made). If any problems are encountered in making payment, please contact me. I am always happy to work with my customers. Shipping: Shipping is offered within the continental USA. Preferred shipping carriers include USPS, UPS and FedEx. Shipping price includes shipping and handling. If you use a PO Box number, please contact me before bidding or purchase. International purchases will be shipped using eBay international shipping. Items will ship within 1-2 business days (often the next day) after receipt of payment.

If purchasing multiple auction items, please allow time for me to send an invoice with the correct calculated shipping before making payment. Return Policy: Returns are accepted if notified promptly after receipt of the item and the item is not being sold as is. The item must be returned in its original condition within 30 days (i.e., unopened, tags attached, etc.). The buyer is responsible for all shipping costs, except in the case of damaged or defective items.
