WORLD WAR II MILITARY 400' FILM MAGAZINE
Bell &
Howell Company, Chicago, Illinois
Early to
mid-1940's
This style of magazine was typically used,
and is most often found today on Bell
& Howell's Eyemo 35mm cameras issued during
World War II. It's characterized by its olive drab military finish. Although
manufactured for the Eyemo, the magazine can also be
used on Bell & Howell's 2709 which has the same mount.
These Government contract metal magazines were
typically equipped with 3-hole pulleys, the 3-hole style having been introduced
in the early 1920's and carried forward. This example has the Government contract
decal and is equipped with a frame to hold production notes or other
information.
