Stuck film advance lever


I have a Ricoh XR10 camera, purchased in 1980. It has worked well until just recently. I was 1/2 way through a roll of film when the manual film advance lever refused to turn. I was able to rewind the film and remove it, but have not been able to get the advance leaver to work.

Any suggestions on what the problem may be, how to fix it and what it might cost to fix?

  Tiny screw or something may have come loose and is jamming it up. If that's it, it's a simple fix for anybody who repairs cameras. Just that labor for camera repair is high.
