    Description

    This is a rare find purchased at a local estate sale and in  amazing complete condition for what appears to be a set up from the early 1900's . It is a Eastman Kodak Co. R.B. Graflex series B box camera which in this case is the famous Folmer & Schwing dept. . This is sold as a set and includes ; R.B. Graflex series B box camera with lens and baffles , the lens is marked Eastman Kodak Anastigmat F-4.5    7 1/2 - 3 1/4 X 5 1/2 No. 3487 the baffles still work but do have some small areas of separation at the corners otherwise it all seems to work as it should , then there is a Folmer & Schwing Crown No. 3 folding tripod which says it is a number 3 with a patent date of 1903 when I took the rotating base of the tripod off the box camera I noticed it was marked  No. 4 , the there are 5 Folmer Graflex Corp. film plates and a Graflex Film pack adapter . I do not know much about these but I do know this is a hard to find professional photographers rig that is 100 plus years old and although it has not been tested in operation it is truly something that has a fantastic charm to it ,  a true camera collectors find     . No shipping to Post Office boxes and shipping to Hawaii and Alaska is a bit more . Shipping and Handling is .50 .
