These have been made by just about every German or perhaps even European maker - they obviously were part of some specifications for standardised mug shots. The bulk of them were by Plaubel and Cambo - a preceding or competing system used a sliding back.
Now that's one I'd rob a bank for!
Like Peter Gowland's 8x10!

Thanks for the explanations. The US-made mug shot cameras I've bought (all Sirchies) for their shutters have all been much cruder. Focus on the ground glass (some have had proper Graflok focusing panels) or point and hope. The mugs may have been, um, restrained.
Bob, That is a Frankencamera if there ever was one!
