Here is a great opportunity to get the Holy Grail of military Bell & Howell Filmo 16mm cameras. This is the Korean War era olive drab PH-430-B US Army Signal Corps version with 3 black military lenses and finders on their separate turrets. These cameras are tough as nails and most still work today, nearly 70 years on. This is no exception as it appears to work (not film tested of course!) although it sounds good. Naturally it is not film tested so please don't ask if it works... properly. Even though it runs fine it is being sold as DISPLAY ONLY. The lenses look ok too but again they haven't been used for probably 50 years or more.
This camera has the military plate attached, red/orange Signal Corps acceptance stamps on the side and another number written in yellow around the top. It comes with both winders (key and crank), the lovely and rare bakelite handle plus the military tech manual showing operation and maintenance. An exceptional collectors piece!!
Australian and world wide insured postage at cost. If actual shipping is less than quoted I will refund the difference.
Happy bidding and good luck!
