How to Fix a TIME Magazine Promotional 35mm Film Camera (Shutter Stuck)

I bought this TIME Promotional Film Camera at a thrift store and the shutter only closes halfway. I figured out a quick fix if your shutter is slightly jammed.

Tweezers

Fingernail (On your finger)

Open the top cover of your camera (Should be just two side small screws).

Take out the spring and use your fingernail or tweezers to bend the spring close the the ends (1/5th length of the spring).

The shortened spring will increase the tension to close the shutter with more power. This small fix has fixed my shutter.
