AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

folding plate camera dating mainly from the 1920s or 1930s, mounted on an elegant mechanical Compur shutter (made by F. Deckel in Munich) and equipped with a Carl Zeiss lens. These splendid antique photographic models were manufactured by historic German brands of the era such as Kamera Werkstätten Dresden (KW) (noted for the Patent Etui series), Zeiss Ikon, Certo (Certotrop) or C.P. Goerz. An absolutely interesting collectible detail is the plaque visible inside the upper panel, which bears the inscription "Hanania Brothers - Jerusalem", indicating the distributor, the historic studio or shop of the era that handled the sale and import of the camera into the Middle East. The camera comes with its original case and tripod, which are unobtainable.
