Hello! Im looking for negative carries that would fit a beseler 23c enlarger. Let me know if you have any you are looking to get rid of. (120/616/620 sizes)
 
Which format you looking for, 645 6x6 6x7 or 6x9?
 
It would be best to list the exact sizes you are looking for - because there are dozens!
 
Contact Vermont Center for Photography in Brattleboro they usually have decent assortment
 
The 6x11 is going to be challenging, because the 23C is really supposed to max out at 6x9. You might need to go the route of those who make them now using 3D printers and the like, and accept that the edges/corners may not image well or at all.
 
A museum would sell negative carriers?

VCP gets a lot of gear as donations, which they sell to fund their programs.

Omega B carriers will fit, though you may have to file the hinge corners just a bit for it to fit. I have one; I'll need to think a bit about whether to sell it (my remaining 23c is stored in attic). You wouldn't be interested in a 23c dichro head to go with it perhaps?
 
Not all Omega B carriers fit.
the ones that fit Beseler 23C are those for the Omega B6, B7 and B8.

Thanks for clarifying. The one I have is from a B8.
