Century # 5

5 x 7 Studio camera fully restored. I bought this from a forum member here about a year and half ago, it was full of wood putty, holes, and cracks. ( I knew this when I bought it) --But the bellows were Nice

A good friend of mine had it for four days, totally took it apart made a new bottom, sanded, refinished it----It cost me a bottle of crown royal---I think it was worth it
