Bell and Howell Sportster 8mm camera

Would you look at that! A Bell and Howell Filmo Sportster 8mm movie camera. That does not need batteries! Holey crap! You got to be kidding me! c.1947. 16mm 'Double Run' film spool and split for 8mm projection. This is a double 8mm camera - so it uses double 8m film - which runs through the camera one way, then gets flipped over before running back the other way. The two streams of frames are then separated during processing, giving 50ft of 8mm film from one 25ft 16mm roll. Exposure is set manually, using a light meter or the built in exposure guide.
