Thank you,

Don't think there was such a model. All the handles from the shooters side of the camera,.. are on the left.
 
Top handle is the oldest type iirc.
pre-pre-anniversary model.
 
I'll be doggone.. and looks like it didn't have a range finder.

"Top Handle" Speed Graphic
1912-1927 (1912-1916 by Folmer & Schwing), 3x4, 3ÂĽ x 5 1/2 (postcard), 4x5 and 5x7. Focal plane shutter. Had very small lensboards so they are unable to use most later (large) lenses.
