- Description
- Black hard-sided travel case with a hinged lid, handle, and carry strap. Metal caps on all the corners and reinforcing along all the edges. Three clasps on the lid, the centre one has a keyhole, no key. The handle on the lid may have been compressed paper or leather, but has been wrapped in black electrical tape so only the original metal loops and brackets remain. The carry strap attaches to both short sides with metal clips and is made of brown leather - the strap has a buckle that is undone so the two halves hang separately at the sides. Throughout the exterior are various travel stickers and labels, mostly torn.The interior of the case is lined with black paper and the bulk of the body is comprised of a particleboard insert separated into three compartments that sits on braces near the bottom, creating a hidden compartment underneath.Contents of the box include various camera accessories and equipment, as well as a collection of manuals for various film exposures. Includes a light reflector in a white bag with blue edges, a flash mount in a handmade red bag and the flash mount’s cords in a different dark red velvet bag (also in that bag are two extended triggers), a “Rolleflex” lens in a brown leather pouch inside a purple Crown Royal bag, eight manuals in a white “Canadian National Hotels” bag, two different sized yellow filters in clear plastic cases, and in a square cardboard box are two screws, a grey cable, a square lens and a 250 mm focuser, and a lens block.

- Description
- Metal Enteco combination filter holder and lens hood lined with soft black fabric in the original orange cardboard box. The lens hood has a short black plastic handle along the rim that, when twisted, lowers and raises a small knob that locks the hood in place on the lens - a secondary level between the rim and the hood allows for filters to be screwed in. Also in the box is a much smaller filter and frame, as well as a Canon view finder zoom lens attachment. The box has a deep orange lid with a yellow and black label on the lid with “5.75” written in pencil in the top right corner - the lid fits completely over the body of the box.
