    I have the curtain assembly out of the camera. If you want it I can send it with some stuff I'm sending to my son in a few days. He lives in Chicago and works in your neighborhood. I don't need it, I have two Baby Graflex SLR Model B's. and two Baby Speeds. They all work. I scrapped out this one and the curtain is in good shape.

    I sent him a package today, he should get it Friday. I sent him some film that I'm not using, he has a new to him Pentax 67.

    Michael's son just hand delivered the curtain. As it's on the rollers I will install it as is and not re glue until this one let's loose.

    Special thanks to Michael and his son!

    And thanks to everyone else also!

    This may take some time. I have a couple projects going right now. Ask your son, what this place looks like...

    Never one to think one camera is ever enough, upon my problem here, I found a nice 3x4 version on Ebay. It arrived today. Way heavier, but it has a 8-1/2" f 4.5 lens with double extension and appears to be all good.

    The seller thinks it was used by a dentist and it does macro focus closely with this very long for 3X4 lens. Since I already have a Mag Bag and more slotted holders it was de rigueur.

    (Don't ask; I don't know. Her name is Maiko Hatsuko, and there are several pix of her with her camera on the web.)
    Thanks, but I'd rather just watch:
