Graflex XLSW View Finder?

[n2mf]

Is there a good, usable, reasonably inexpensive match of a viewfinder for 6x9 format on a Graflex XLSW (47mm lens) camera, other than the sport finder?

VC 21mm finder. Or most any 21 will work. I got the VC on the bay. Note my avatar.

Geez...I just did a search on e bay...I might as well forget it...prices are stupid!

How about this? http://bit.ly/1fM2xCM
I have no connection to the seller but can't beat the price. I would've tried it had it been around when I did my camera.

Saw that...I'm pondering.

If you do get one, please report back. I don't know if you have a roll film back yet but my advice would be to get a Horseman back if you can swing it. I tried the various Graflex backs, including some late lever wind with roller types and the film flatness was not so hot. Depends on what you shoot, I imagine on a landscape it wouldn't be a problem. For architecture it was pretty bad. Just my two cents, having gone down that road.
