    Yes, RB67 backs work fine on Galvin. (Also Horseman and Graflex).

    Yes, but if they're the newer type with double-exposure interlocks, a simple modification is required. The plastic plate with lock rib must be removed, a small pivoting lever taken out and the plate replaced. It's a ten minute operation using jeweler's screwdrivers and readily reversible. Unless this is done you won't be able to advance the film.
