Finally! A shutter that apo-germinar 1000mm will fit into...

You see all the rust on the back of that thing---can't tell me it's going to time right...

Looks like a prop for a trade show. All I know is my two sons would figure out how to put some big mud tires on it.

That shutter pictured is a display piece made to be used at trade shows or by salesmen. It's not meant to fit any particular lens. There happens to be a big market for those things. I know because I watch the Antiques Roadshow and that makes me an expert afterall. I think it's a nice object. Not ten grand nice, but nice.

This is probally the reason the French guillotine became obsolete - the Gauthier shutter replaced it.
