AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Early strut-folding camera by L.G. Kleffel & Sohn from around 1900, for 13x18 dry plates. Polished wood and leather bellows.

Lens: Goerz Doppel Anastigmat serie III-1 F=150mm f6 (serial 19636).
Shutter: Focal plane shutter (Anschütz type) to 1/1000 (2 fixed slits).

Condition:
The camera has minor age-related signs and is overall in good condition. The shutter is complete and still working, but delicate and obviously not accurate. The lens is very hazy inside and needs proper cleaning. Groundglass broken in one corner (see photographs).

Includes:
Camera, groundglass back and double slide.

Shipping:
Track and sign standard international shipping. Any customs or other taxes are to be settled by the buyer.
