Hi all,

For sale is a Graflex 22 roll film holder for a RB Graflex 6x9/2x3 camera. This is the older version designed specifically for the older RB-series Graflex 6x9 cameras. The holder has a groove where the raised light trap ridge on the camera body fits. This is different than later models where the holder has a ridge that fits into a groove on the camera. The darkslide had a small hole in it which was patched with an epoxy at some point (you can see the little spot in one of the pictures). The hole is patched perfectly and the holder works great and priced to sell. $45 + 15 shipping. Price is firm. Local pickup available in NYC.


 
Please include a photo of the top of the holder. A Graflex "22" should be 6x6cm. If you remove the darkslide you should see baffles cropping the 6x9 outer opening to 6x6.
 
You're spot on there. 6x9 should say "23". I've just taken a closer look and it looks like this is actually an old "22" that has been opened up to 6x9. Bought this years ago and never used it much so didn't notice. I can confirm that it works great for 6x9 so if anyone would like it, since it's apparently a modified holder, feel free to make an offer. When I used it, it was on a 6x9 RB graflex Series B which it worked perfectly with. If anyone would like this for that camera, this might be an opportunity to grab one for a steal.

Thanks Old-N-Feeble for pointing out the discrepancy. You've likely saved me some headache.
 
No problem. Is the insert an 8, 10 or 12 exposure?
