This is a rare pre-Zeiss merger Contessa Nettel Fiduca 9x12 format plate camera with case and film holder. Has a Carl Zeiss Tessar f6.3 13.5 cm lens and Compur shutter. Double extension bellows in good condition. Aperture works, shutter time & bulb (Z&D) work, Instantaneous (M) works but speeds are not accurate. Some wear from use and one of the levers for moving bellows is loose because of broken screw but you can still move bellows & close using the one good lever. Strap on case is broken. Email with any questions. A nice rare addition to your camera collection.
The Contessa-Nettel AG Stuttgart was a German company that resulted from the merger of Contessa Camerawerke and Nettel Camerawerk in the year 1919. After a time of cooperation with ICA it became a part of Zeiss Ikon in 1926.
