I don't know if anyone was watching the Birdland camera that just sold on ebay 391802534062, but I wanted it! I lost. I'm sure whoever got it was just looking to get the Dallmeyer lens. But if anyone here bought it, you should know it was owned by a pretty famous explorer who wrote a book on an African expedition, with photos, around 1910. He also lived in Arizona for a brief period, and became a cowboy in 1908. Was a fellow of the Royal Geographical Society. I hope whoever buys it keeps it together as a historic kit, and doesn't remove the lens to flip. But if so: contact me! I'll buy the rest of the camera and case!
