Want to Buy Beseler 45MXT 4x5 Glass Negative Carrier w/Anti Newton Glass

Recently got a Beseler 45MXT Enlarger and am looking for a compatible 4x5 ANR glass negative carrier for it, either the Beseler brand or if anyone has other options/alternatives I am open to suggestions, thanks!

Hi!

I don't have one for sale, but an alternative you may want to consider is the vintage Beseler Negaflat 4x5 holder. It's a unique alternative to 4x5 glass carriers...By gripping the edges of the negative on opposite sides, it pulls the negative taut, holding it flat without glass...The Negaflat can be used with all Beseler 4x5 enlargers, and on Omega D-series enlargers with an adapter plate. I love mine!

I have both a Negaflat and a glass carrier, but I'm not selling either.

I'd highly recommend the Negaflat if your goal is simply to keep 4x5 film flat. These are easy to find, but it seems the older ones are slightly different than the newer ones.

The reason I keep my 4x5 glass carrier is mainly so that I have a glass carrier when I want one for smaller negatives. For example, I also shoot 16mm and Minox film, and this allows me to make 8x10 "contact" sheets from the smaller negative -- even though the negatives are in the glass carrier in the enlarger, and NOT actually in contact with the paper.

I had Canal Plastic center on canal st nyc make me a black acrylic holder

1/16" black op, 8-1/2" x 8-1/2" , with cut out at the center (3 11/16 x 4 11/16)

I put 2 small pieces of acid free tape on the edge of the neg, and position it over the hole. works fine.
