Description
A large, black leather bound square folding camera from Eastman Kodak Co. The camera when folded looks like a leather case with a leather handle attached at the top with two large metal buttons. One of the shorter sides features varying mechanisms to make adjustments to the camera. At the top is rectangular shaped metal plate with a knob that can be twisted and will make a clicking noise with a engraved arrowed to indicate turn the knob counter-clockwise, underneath is a l-shaped leaver that has a minor turn radius with an “M” engraved on the one arm. In the middle is a gold metal knob that can be pushed away from the case to open the one side and reveal the camera. Near the knob is a metal plate that reads “SPEED GRAPHIC CURTAIN APERTURE”, a graph with numbers, and “FOLMER & SCHWING DIVISION” “EASTMAN KODAK CO.” “13476 ROCHESTER, N.Y.” At the bottom is another square-shaped plate with a knob that can be turned that corresponds to numbers in a small black circle in the plate. On the top of the case is a white sticker with blue numbers “68622”. On the back of the case is a section for film holders/double dark slides and a glass plate behind a piece of the case that opens with a clasp at the bottom of the square. The other short side features small metal circles and a hole for a screw - most likely for a tripod mount. The front of the case is flat. When the case is opened it reveals the folded camera with black bellows and a silver metal face with a Wollensak Betax No.3 lens. It moves on a track to extend and retract with a mechanism in the front that when pinch together allows for the movement of the camera. There is a partially ripped sticker on the wood panel that reads “Sales - Service - Repairs” “Camera & Instrument Crafts” “9452 Calgary, Alta.” One side of the panel also features a black plate with numbers for focal range.
