As with all motion picture cameras this one was upgraded as newer technology made the old obsolete. It has a set of Cooke Speed Panchro lenses from about 1925, it has a Mitchell side finder from the 1920's. It replaced the old Bell & Howell side tube that was nearly unusable when it came from the factory new.

It has an original Bell & Howell tripod and head which is very unusual. Almost immediately this was usually replaced with an Akeley tripod and head or a Mitchell tripod and head. Both were easier to operate than the Bell & Howell.

Some photographs of Theda Bara also come with the camera. (See Next Page)

Both cameras belong at Fox Studios or Fox TV. Either in their main entrance or in a senior executive's reception, displayed for all to see. The Bell and Howell 2709 and the Williamson are two extremely striking cameras and would be show stoppers where ever they are displayed.
