About the Item

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ NOTE: This Antique May Qualify For Our GALLERY WIDE ~EXTRA~ 10-25% OFF SALE, Going On NOW. Please Inquire. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Submitted for your approval is this circa 1930 Eastman Kodak Cine Kodak Motion Picture Film Camera with a custom fabricated hardwood gunstock and vintage sight finder made by Lyman. The 16mm Kodak camera is in a wonderful state with the factory original Oxblood Brown leather covered body in pristine condition. This is an extremely rare example, beautifully preserved and unrestored. The camera runs nicely and has a partially filmed 100' reel of undeveloped film still inside of it. Who can guess what wildlife treasures were captured on this original film. The film is vintage black and white and probably dates back to the 30’s as well. The 4.5” telephoto Kodak lens is 100% original and has a tight focus needing lubrication. These cameras were used for sports and animal cinematography back in the 1930’s where a solid stable support was needed for hand held filming of flying birds, car racing or running game and dogs in the field. Sold as an accurate and beautiful wall sculpture display item for either Cinema Equipment collectors or hunters or armament collectors. Makes a great library, trophy room, office display or collection piece. A true, one of a kind, Hollywood filmmaking / gun - sporting artifact. As with all of our pieces, a signed and sealed Certificate Of Authenticity is included with your purchase. ~Like artifacts of an ancient civilization - these rare legends of early Motion Picture and related production equipment technology - have a secure and appreciating place in history.~ NOTE: Our selling prices are usually pre discounted and intended to be at 'Designer Net' and 'To The Trade' price levels. However, we ALWAYS welcome discussions and exploration of your budgetary requirements and how we MAY be able to help meet those cost targets with ADDITIONAL discounts or courtesies. NOTE: Due to the nature of online photo reproduction we cannot be responsible for exact photographic color, hue, contrast and flash and non flash exposure accuracy in our photos. While we do our best to display photos that are as accurate as possible, our photos may or may not depict the absolute EXACT hue or color tone of our antiques due to the many variables in image photography, image exporting, image uploading and viewer monitor accuracy. Please ask about color tone and hue BEFORE buying, if this is a concern! We have a gallery showroom where all of our antiques are on display and we will gladly offer in person viewings of our antiques to any designers and buyers that need to 'put eyes' on our antiques. We welcome all visits to our gallery, by appointment. NOTE: In the interest of antique presentation and historical accuracy, we do not alter or modify our electrical, optical, mechanical or electronic antiques, with the exception of some vintage light fixtures (which we DO correctly convert internally to modern electrical working household standards). Therefore some electrical and mechanical items MAY or may not perform and operate. We sell these as accurate display and collectible antique items. We suggest that these artifacts be used for display and not be operated. Please ask for more details on operability of our electrical and mechanical antiques if operability is a concern.
