I'm thinking of buying an "Art Deco" Rolleicord since I just mistakenly bought a plate adapter back for an older style Rollei rather than the 1954 Rolleflex MX I actually have. Always wanted a Deco one anyway, I guess. Looking into I read that the later Decos had a removeable back. OK, how do I tell by looking at photos of cameras is one has removeable back or not? Or, is there a lens serial number I can go by?

On my deco the back only comes off if the side hinge is removed.
Otherwise, appears it might work with the plate adapter.
