Never thought I would find one of these, but I did. I have hauled around a pair of Gundlach quarter plate film holders (3 1/4 x 4 1/4) for decades, hoping to run across this petite view camera, so I am quite happy today.

Needs at least one replacement knob and the bellows are very dry, with pinholes on the corners, but I can have a bellows made for it and McMaster Carr might have a suitable temporary knob until I can find an actual vintage knob.

This should be fun to operate; has all the movements of a typical Gundlach Korona Pictoral View but in miniature.

I'm not a "hoarder", but a "strategic planner"...

Might it be sensible to change Title to Gunlach instead of Gunlatch Otherwise readers might be expecting a joke about firearms -assuming such a thing as a joke about firearms is possible 🤨
