AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful wooden camera 12 x 16. The machine closely resembles the MB machines by Marlow Brothers. This manufacturer has produced a very large number of variants of these machines.
It is therefore reasonable to suppose that this camera was produced by them.

High-quality wood camera, closed format, dimensions 21 x 25 x 9 cm.
Ground glass with intact and original focus, measuring 12x16 cm.
Handle, finishes, and mechanisms in brass. A small handle is missing that does not affect the extension of the bellows; a brass wheel for a dedicated bracket attachment is present.
Complete brass optical device from E Faller Paris, 2x8 Rue Du Temple.
The wooden parts and the bellows are excellent, with understandable signs of use due to age.
details
Circa 1900/1910, it does not list the manufacturer's name.
High-quality wooden wardrobe with brass finishes.
- beautiful leather bellows - barrel lens optics with no external diaphragms.
Mechanics functioning, focus screen intact.
Wood free of cracks and in good condition for this camera over a hundred years old.
The regulation mechanisms worked excellently. Total weight is nearly 4 kg.
