Vintage Rochester Optical Co. Premo Senior. large format field camera with wooden construction, leather-covered body and folding bellows. Fitted with a Bausch & Lomb Optical Co. Victor shutter. The shutter has been checked manually and fires on all marked speeds. However, the camera has not been film/plate tested and the accuracy of the shutter speeds has not been measured, so it is sold as untested with no guarantee of full photographic functionality. The wooden body and brass fittings show normal signs of age and use. Bellows appear complete from visual inspection, but they have not been tested for light leaks. A beautiful early American large-format camera, suitable for a collection, display or restoration/use. Film/plate format: Premo Sr. was produced in several formats including 4×5, 5×7, 6½×8½ and 8×10 inch, so the exact format of this example should be confirmed by measuring the plate holder/back. Please check the photos carefully for the exact condition and included parts.
