ICA Metal 13x18cm plate holders

[Stan160]

I bought an ICA Ideal 385 plate camera some time ago, used it enough to discover a major light leak, then got busy with other things and left it in the cupboard.

Got it out this weekend, and by covering the camera body have found that the light leaks in through the join between film holder and body. Managed to get a half-decent looking image on a sheet of paper.

The camera came with two plate holders, adapted with sheaths to take film. I would like to find more. I asked a question on this forum just after buying the camera and found out they were most likely Millionenfalz 13x18cm holders, often found on German Ebay.

The persistent search I've had running has only alerted me to occasional 9x12 holders, and intermittent searching through Google has resulted in no success. Would be grateful if anyone has a suggestion of anywhere else to look, or if anyone has any holders they would be willing to sell. I can post photos of the holders if it is any help.

Thanks,
Ian

They are not listed on the website, but www.oldcameras.at has been a good source for miscellaneous plate camera bits and pieces before.

Here are three film sheaths for 13x18, that could be useful, on eBay: 230297584668
