Graflex 8 " X10 " Focal Plane Shutter - Vintage




Item History & Price

Information:
Reference Number: Avaluer:904420Brand: Graflex
Original Description:
Graflex 8"x10" Focal Plane Shutter - Vintage. Condition is For parts or not working. For your consideration is a vintage Graflex 8” x 10” focal plane shutter. The latest patent date I could find on it was April 21, ’08. This shutter could easily be 110 years old. It does not function in its present state. It will need a complete overhaul to see service again. The cloth roll has become stiff with age and is a bit porous. The metal aperture windows are in good condition. I suspect ...the original roll could be used as a template and the metal aperture windows fitted to new cloth. The spring wind mechanism needs cleaning, lubrication and adjustment. It is too stiff now to test for fear of damaging it. There is a large crack down one side of the box that appears to have had a repair made to it. There are some small nails missing that locate the two top attachment clips. Apart from that it appears to be complete. The shutter has been fitted to a Kodak Empire 8x10 camera in the past. I suspect it fits a wide variety of cameras from that era. The light-trap step that fits to the camera is 11” x 11”. This shutter is offered as is; that is for parts or repair. This would make a great addition to a Graflex or vintage large format collection. Enjoy the auction!
