// I can’t wait to use this //

A few weeks ago, my family and I traveled to Connecticut for a wedding.  Only my mom actually attended the wedding.  I explored the Hartford area with my siblings and our good friend Dave.  We had a sweet little picnic (where we ate goat cheese, almonds and honey goodness) and stopped at a huuuge vintage sale at a Victorian home.

My only purchase from the sale was this vintage Bell & Howell movie camera (I think it’s from 1952).  Until writing this post, I thought it was just your average camera, but after some research, learned otherwise (shows you how ignorant I am when it comes to photography versus movie-making).  I am SO very excited to figure out how to use it (and discover if it’s still working).  I’m also eager to use it as a prop!  Don’t be surprised if you see it again soon.

Does anyone know anything about this movie camera?  Any suggestions on how to make it work??

till tomorrow,

Rebecca
