Just saw this. The motor blimp box is for a Cinema Products replacement crystal motor. BNC #14 would be a Warners camera from a batch bought in 1938. You state you have the sidefinder cams but do not see the bracket on the sidefinder that is necessary to make the cams function. As this is an early model, I suspect a regular NC sans front could be placed inside without too much trouble. ED.

Here is a file of the Side Finder cams, and I did not say this was no. 14 , just the shade ( shown in photo ). the Mag Blimp has 92 stamped on it.
The other files shows as I said there is no L plate, An NC body is a long way from making this a working camera. I can not find any cast or stamped
number in the main Blimp, and yes the Motor blimp is a more modern one. I hope this clears things up. email me if your interested.
Great for Display, wertz@earthlink.net, the price on BNC 298 ( in the video on another post ) has be reduced give the number a call. a complete camera, lens set , cases ect. almost new. Military camera.
Thanks William

Sorry, assumed was #14. Yes better shot of viewfinder. Assuming older expected to see the clamp-on rig.

Yep, lens mount, shutter connections, motor, rackover mod. and some finesse. But an NC not a bad start. Sad no cast number on/in blimp casing.

Other camera: 298 looks to be in sweet condition. ED.
