Selling this vintage movie camera for my grandmother in case you know of anyone out there who collects these types of things. Many more pics in the eBay auction. Spread the word, thanks!
Paillard Bolex H16 Rex Movie Camera (1963) - eBay (item 180607133289): "I'm selling this for my grandparents. My grandfather passed away last year at 87 years old and was the original and only owner of this camera. He bought it new in May of 1963 (visible in some of the paperwork). The camera specifically is a: Bolex Paillard H 16 Rex Movie Camera (made in Switzerland) 16mm We have a fair amount of old home movies he took with it in the 1960s through early 1970s. It of course hasn't been used in years and as with any mechanical device this old it probably needs some maintenance. But nothing appears broken. My grandfather was a bit of a gadget nut in his day and took meticulous care of his things. I'm confident it was never dropped or otherwise abused. Until I got it from my grandmother it was stored in a first floor closet, not an attic or damp basement. There are no signs of any kind of moisture damage."
