Good 35mm camera types for this class are:
Canon (AT1, AE1, Rebel, Elan)
Pentax K1000
Nikon (N70, N80, N2000, FM, Nikomat or Nikkormat)
Olympus OM1
Minolta (Maxxum or X-series)
This list is not comprehensive. If you find a camera for a good price, be sure it is an SLR and has a Manual Exposure Mode (which means that you can adjust aperture and shutter speeds independently).
Paper Choices
Ilford Multigrade RC (Pearl), 8x10
or
Arista Multigrade RC (Pearl), 8x10
Film Choices
Ilford 35mm, 36 exposure - get the 400, 125 or 100 ISO - I recommend HP5
or
Arista 35mm, 36 exposure
