ICA - Sliding-Bed Plate Camera (ICA - Works, Dresden)
Manufacturing period: around 1910

Lens: ICA double anastigmat Maximar 6.8/165mm
Shutter: Compound -/200 and M, B, Z
Bed with 3x extension (see photo)

Lens holder interchangeable
Crosshair finder
Case: wood, leathered / inside of the front panel lined with plastic (Bakelite?)
Bellows: black
Serial number objective: 167366 ~ 1912. The lens was probably made by Carl Zeiss Jena, since ICA has not produced lenses themselves since 1909.
Condition:
The cosmetic condition is good to very good for the age of more than 100 years. An exception is the Bakelite plate on the inside of the front panel, which shows some cracks (see photos). The lens is clear and free of scratches. The shutter releases. The bellows is intact, as is the ground glass. All adjustments operate smoothly.
