Mini Story:

Bell & Howell were household names in the golden age of filmmaking, and their accessories are a nostalgic nod to the era of home movie cameras and projectors. This compact carry case—with its crisp faux leather finish and vibrant red lining—was designed to store and protect a Bell & Howell accessory. Today, it makes a stylish retro storage piece or display item for collectors of classic film gear.
