    I don't imagine the OP really gives a shit at this point. I mean he only asked the age of his Crown 10 years ago. Pay attention Louis.

    A late one, serial number assigned roughly 7,000 numbers after the non-book's last date of 8/17/64. There should be a date code stamped on the bottom of the bed rails. The key to decoding is here: http://graflex.org/helpboard/viewtopic.php?t=3321

    Hey,

    I recently came across a Graflex Crown Graphic camera. In the front it had its serial number 410335. By going to http://graflex.coffsbiz.com/serials.html you can look up your serial number. Mine turned out to be from 1947, pretty darn cool, and it's still in great condition. I just have to find some film to test it out.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks in advance.

    Um, 410335 is in a block of 2x3 Crown Graphic serial numbers assigned 2/6/47. Your camera is a 2x3er, isn't it?
