Camera is in nice condition, everything works fine. Includes ground glass backs for 5x7 and 6.5x8.5 (Full Plate). Also 6 5x7 plate holders and 2 6.5x8.5 plate holders in good condition - need minor cleaning and waxing of slides. Also a partial box of unexposed 6.5x8x5 plates, which are probably 80+ years out of date.
I did notice some tiny pinholes in the bellows, and repaired with black paint. I started to paint all the folds, but the camera is light tight and usable right now. Bellows extension is about 15 inches. The nickel plated hardware has some corrosion, but I polished.
The 5x7 back also fits regular film holders, but I believe you would need to make a shim to focus with. I can give more info.
Also included is a lensboard and a splitter board for the 6.5x8.5 back.
$250 plus shipping. Paypal accepted. I will be away 1/23-27.
