FOR SALE:This is from a very large camera estate that has been sitting unused in storage for many years. Note: I am not a photographer, collector nor expert. I am selling estate items. I am not able to assess condition in any professional manner. This item is being sold AS IS and may need cleaning and restoration to be used.
PLEASE ask any questions important to your satisfaction BEFORE bidding.This is a relist from a non-p...aying bidder. ITEM: This is a very rare find from the estate. I believe it to be a Kodak No 4. It is a folding box camera. The box measures 7 by 6 by 5 1/2 inches. The plate on the front and metal plate in the back reads Made By the Eastman Company Rochester NY USA. It has a sector shutter assembly. There is a compartment that holds film rolls. From what I read, this was the first camera to take roll film. The film holder and body are each stamped with the number 5666. I'm unfamiliar with how this works or if anything is missing. Please see pictures. I do know that the top leather lid is detached and has wear on the edges.
Being sold with no reserve, AS IS, no returns.
