AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Extremely rare pseudo TLR made by Zeiss ikon in Germany in 1941/42. Whole lot sold to Sweden in 1944, sources differ from 100-700 cameras made. Camera looking really nice after more than 80 years. Comes with original leather case. Shutter working, I have not made further tests. Due to it's rarity and age, primarily sold as a collectors item, may need service if to be used.
