AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The Avus series of folding plate cameras was made by Voigtländer in Germany from 1913 to 1934. These medium-to-upper-quality cameras are seen in both 6.5x9cm and 9x12cm versions. They have double-extension bellows. The front lens standard allows a small amount of both rise/fall and lateral shift. Otherwise they are typical folding plate cameras of the period, with a big folding sports finder and additional brilliant finder. The name Avus was taken from a popular car race circuit in Berlin, the first speedway of Germany. Dimensions are height=12.5 cm, width=9cm and depth= 4.5cm. The Case is not original as is the ground glass.
The camera is in fair condition hence the no reserve price. I also taking a picture with it on photopaper (see pictures)
