Want to Buy Looking for 14x17 Ground Glass Back and Matching Holder

[Fragomeni]

I posted this over on the LF forum as well but it never hurts to post these things here too.

I am looking for a 14x17 back (with GG) and matching film holder. If anyone has this available for sale please let me know via PM.

Thank you!

You are aware that it's pretty easy to make, right? With glass or with acryclic....

Thanks for the reply Keithwms but you've misunderstood my post. I'm looking for a 14x17 ground glass spring back, meaning the hole back that attached to the rear frame of a 14x17 view camera. Also, because standardization of film holders above 11x14 is minimal, ULF film holders were typically made to fit optimally with specific backs hence the request for a matching holder. Making a ground glass spring back is the most difficult part of view camera construction and the holders are even more difficult because of the extremely precise tolerances required assuming you want optimal results.

Ah sorry!!! Don't know how I missed that. Apologies.

No worries
