Hi,
from before WW2 ?
http://www.largeformatphotography.in...as-before-1945
It looks similar to a Perka 9x12, sometimes badged as Silar (proto-Linhof). There are a few variants with small differences. 9x12cm is a metric format slightly smaller than 4x5. Film is available, though you'll need to find the correct holders and film sheaths (septums) if they don't come with the camera.
If you can find one, there are RADA 120 backs that fit this camera. With a rotating back and removable lensboards it's quite a handy camera.
Now that I've received the camera, I think you're right about the Perka/Silar model (after a little research). I was also given about 5 film sheaths, so I'm hoping to get it up and running! Will post some photos of it in the pre-WWII thread. Thanks for all your help!
