Yashica B TLR (Photos)

Was curious about these old relics, and now this one surfaces in Australia. Plenty of interesting pictures and brass. Has anyone seen one up close? The 'A' model that I purchased on *bay recently looks new compared to this one.

He stripped off all the leatherete n removed the chrome on all the beauty features. Sad example.

Also looks like an Elmar 3.5/50 taking lens -- wouldn't cover 6x6.

Think the "elmar" is a mess up in terms of image uploading. It's probably a rebadged russian industar-22 - look at the aperture selector.

And, the seller is not sure it works.

It's an ugly one for sure. I have a Yashica B standing here (although the leatherette needs replacing) in much better condition. The Elmar doesn't fit in the line up..
