Title pretty much says most of it. The original Bausch & Lomb "Made only for Eastman Kodak" 210mm Tessar lens in B&L Compound shutter is present and excellent. It has a few "pee" spots from whatever creature called this camera home for a century or so. But it is capable of making superbly sharp images, just as it is! The shutter works at all speeds! Hand trip only until you clean up the "release" piston assy and restore that function. Bellows are shot as the pics show. This is a fabulous project for someone to take on. See the last picture. Use it just as it is now with a "Morley Baer Wrap"

$OLD + some postman money. Perhaps it can ride in flat rate large? Figure $24 ish for posting. Or you're welcome to pick it up in Tonopah Nevada!

Might want to fix the image loading... or not loading as it is...
 
That's a neat camera! The rotating back is so great. 5x7 is perfect, contact prints are lovely.
 
Thanks! This is the model Kodak used with the #6 Cirkut cameras.
