Of all the Crowns, Speeds, Super Graphics, etc. I have owned, this is the absolute cleanest. It took me a long time to find one in this condition, but I find that I don't use it for fear of creating a blemish on it. Sad, I know, but's it really is that nice.

The camera appeared to have been brand new when I bought it and it hasn't been used much since. It includes the usual Kalart side rangefinder and the top viewfinder (with the appropriate mask.)

Other often missing parts that are still there, presumably, from when new, are: the hand strap, infinity stops, focusing scales, Graflok Back, metal lens cap, remote shutter linkage, and focusing hood.

The infinity stops and focusing scales are adjusted to the mounted Ektar 101mm f/4.5 lens and the remote shutter button works.

The only down side to this unit is that the Kodak Synchro-Rapid 800 shutter needs a CLA. Oil on the aperture blades make it unusable. The only other minor imperfection is that the mirroring on the Kalart RF is worn and needs to be replaced.

I traced the manufacture date to 1953.

Price is $295, plus shipping from Kansas, U.S.A.

I have another Ektar 101mm in a working Supermatic shutter that I'll include for another $30.
