Mitchell Camera Corporation Mitchell, Model NC
The Mitchell Model NC is a 35mm motion picture camera produced by the Mitchell Camera Corporation in the United States. Introduced in the early 1930s, it was positioned as a professional studio cine camera and saw extensive use in Hollywood production.
With only a single UK auction-hammer result on file, the Mitchell Model NC sold for £2,000 in April 2024 at saleroom level (wholesale, before commission). On that limited evidence, what a Mitchell NC is worth today sits around the low four figures, though the price an individual example sells for can swing significantly with completeness of magazines, motors and accessories.
Sales History
Prices shown are realised prices — auction results and completed eBay sales, never asking prices. Most saleroom figures are hammer prices, before commission; some houses publish a premium-inclusive figure, and we do not adjust for condition. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher.
