Burke & James Press Camera 4x5 is a nice compact all metal camera with movements such as rise/fall (with drop bed), tilt, and shift. Other features such as 360 degree rotating back, 14 inch extension etc.
Condition: Was stored for 40-50 years and needs restoration. Leather is peeling. Back rotation needs freeing up. Main problem is the bellows are shot - they are very stiff and splitting so need replacement.
Includes: Wooden case, flash attachment, 6 wooden 4x5 holders, 2 lensboards (takes graflex C boards). Lens not included-- the kodak ektar 127mm would be a good match for this camera and I also have a few lenses that would be suitable for this camera.
More info is available on camera eccentric 1951 Burke and James catalog and

Nice project for someone who likes to work on cameras.
$50 plus shipping from Elk, California (or pick it up). I can take paypal.
Let me know if any questions.
