AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Offered in absolute mint condition (Mint condition):
A black metal Rada Rollex-Patent roll-film cassette (Model 2), with the original French instructions and packaging.
Precisely manufactured in Germany in August 1936 for the French-speaking market.
This is a rare opportunity for both historically minded collectors and active film photographers!
Specifications:
Year of manufacture: August 1936 (historically verified via the original print code on the instructions: 8. 36).
Back fitting: Falz 42 (the well-known German Normalfalz / single slide-in fitting).
Fits directly on, among others, Voigtländer Avus/Bergheil, Zeiss Ikon Maximar/Ideal, Ihagee and Certo cameras.
Cosmetic condition: Like new. After 90 years, the black paint and the metal of the dark slide are virtually free of scratches.
Light sealing: The purple/brown plush/felt is in exceptionally beautiful, fluffy and unworn condition. No signs of drying out or flattening.
Mechanics: The mechanism, winding key and red-window slide operate perfectly smoothly.
Original Packaging & Instructions: Includes the original cardboard storage box with its authentic orange label and French stamp (“Prière de lire le mode d'emploi inclus”).
Also includes the rare original French-language instructions.
Unique detail: The box bears the original historic handwritten note “1 fenêtre”, confirming that this is the sought-after, true 6×9 version with a single red inspection window.
There is still a roll of 120 film inside the housing, currently at frame No. 4.
This film type is wound on a spool with a protective paper backing printed with the numbers 1 through 8, which you need to use with the red window on your Rada cassette.
The Rollex cassette is suitable for the following cameras:
Avus and early Voigtländer Bergheil models (in the 9×12 version).
Zeiss Ikon: Suitable for various 9×12 models, such as the Zeiss Ikon
Ideal, Maximar and certain versions of the Miroflex.
Ihagee: Fits this brand’s 9×12 folding cameras, such as the Ihagee Duplex.
Certo: Suitable for the larger Certo Bee Bee (9×12) folding cameras.
Other brands: Balda, Zeca, Glunz and Orion cameras that use the
standard Normalfalz back.
