I inherited this whole plate (6-1/2 x 8-1/2") camera with 2 film holders from a buddy who's not into musty old antique cameras.
After some consideration, I've decided that I don't need an extra project, so I'm offering it for sale...
The bellows have rotted into extinction, the leather covering is moth eaten.
The wood work is very nice, mechanically its almost new...
Custom Bellows has quoted 125 Pounds for new bellows, Western Bellows has quoted $180, plus $25 to physically install the bellows. (That's a gooood deal).
The film holders are especially nice. One looks almost unused, the older one (with the fiberboard septum) is still in "very good" condition.
Package price: $50 for the camera, $75 for the two holders.
The goofy looking lens is not included
Here's a link to a discussion on the camera:

I'm not set up for PayPal but I can take Visa/MC/Discover cards.
