This camera is in nearly perfect shape. the T/B ring around the shutter release is apparently stuck or locked. Either way, I can't turn it. All other features of the camera are working properly. The body has no dings or worn spots. It comes with the leather half-case that screws into the tripod hole. Body and finder only. Does not include lens.
I will put pictures up tonight.

$200 obo.

Lifted before turned. Makes sense. I tried that though. It seems to come almost far enough up to turn, but not quite. There was no impact there but perhaps there is old goo or something in the mechanism. I've never actually used the feature before so it could be just 50 year old lubricant?
 
I want that desk!
 
that desk is a 1903
Ignore the battery. I just removed it. But as you can see, the desk is a LImberts mission style desk and I treasure it.
You can buy the camera though

Is the meter accurate?

It seems to be. Fresh batteries. I checked it against my 1 degree SpotMeter F. Only thing is, it seems to occasionally want the external button (on top of the finder) pressed to activate the meter.
 
Turns out that the T/L thing DOES work. It was just a bit "clogged" with 50 years of grut. I worked it loose and now I do get full functionality. I just tested the lock setting and it does lock the shutter. The Timer setting does hold the shutter open for the time I select on the timer lever.

Do you mean DP-1 meter? I don't see DP-10 on my internet search.
 
No such thing as a DP-10 meter. Besides the foam mirror falling off and the other issues you described is there anything else? Shutter speeds somewhat accurate? self timer Working? F2's are a dime a dozen.
 
DP-11
Thanks for telling me that working F2s are "dime a dozen" If you don't like my price, offer a lower one. You don't need to justify it. Otherwise, the mirror foam is the only issue. Shutter speeds are fine. Self timer works

It's the DP-1 finder and not DP-11.
 
Dear God. Can y’all let this man sell his camera? Whether it’s the DP-10, DP-11, or DP-12345... he doesn’t need to be corrected especially if you’re only doing it for self serving interests.
 
I think you all knew it was the DP-1 finder but you wanted me to know I don't know what you know. Fair enough and well played. I can sell the body or not. Maybe I'll just give it away to my neighbor. Better yet, I'll just give it to Christopher if he wants it.

And yeah, I'm giving it to Christopher. I'm gonna give him a lens too. I'll ship it to him this weekend
