Here is a wonderful reminder of yesteryear. The Revere movie camera was 'State of the Art' in its day (late '50's, early 1960's). It is labeled as the Revere Eight, Model 40, Magazine Cine. This is a mainspring windup camera with NO BATTERIES REQUIRED  Wind up the mainspring and flip the trigger on the right side of the unit and the camera operates with that wonderful old sound.
The motor trigger also has a frame-by-frame mode which is unusual and only seen on cameras of quality. It uses a film magazine that slips into the film compartment of the camera. There is also a speed adjustment dial near the trigger and a footage adjustment dial over the trigger. The camera is all metal and very heavy and well-built.
There is an amber colored filter install over the lens. What a great nostalgic treat this camera is.
