- Description
- Dark wood and metal [possibly brass] Agfa tripod with a large rectangular camera mount covered in green felt, a plastic-handled crank to raise or lower the mount platform, and wooden legs with metal braces at the bottom to control the length. All joints on and around the mount platform are tightened/loosened with metal keys - the platform can rotate a full 360 degrees and the camera mount can tilt side to side, as well as 90 degrees up. There is a diamond-shaped “Agfa” logo tag attached to the top of one of the legs and a rectangular company tag on one short end of the mount platform.
