- Description
- Manufacturer’s details for tripods. Hard-sided travel case with metal corner brackets and reinforcing along all edges; the hinged lid is held closed with two metal clasps and a central lock [unlocked]; wooden runners along the bottom and front of the case. The exterior of the case has remnants of shipping labels throughout, mostly from CP Rail, as well as “FS2” stenciled on the lid and back in yellow. The interior of the case is lined with pale red fabric.Housed in the case are two Acme-Lite metal tripods, most likely used to support lights rather than cameras. Both tripods have central silver metal bodies and coloured legs - one red [legs tied together with a piece of string] and one blue.
