Repair Project: Bell & Howell (Canon) Dial 35

I acquired this strange camera recently, when the vendor made an offer I couldn't refuse. "Aren't you going to bargain with me? Let's start here... " This specimen did not function, but hasty research suggested it may be an issue with sticky gears in its unique spring wound clockwork drive. This image page will be where I collect information and observations in an ongoing effort to get it working again.

 

The sticker? The too-high-for-me initial price and initials of Physics prof. Doug B., who had consigned several obsolete photographic items hoping they would find new homes.
