This tailboard Hare camera was made for a long time from 1878. You read about it here:

It appears quite often in auctions, but I have never seen the brass bound case before!

If it is for sale, you can list it in the For Sale section here, when you have been a member for a month.

He already has it for sale, on Ebay. Which is against the rules. 332276175277

I should have checked! The signature apple and the Jaipur facade giving the Indian background. The box is probably local made and is certainly not mahogany!

He is a dealer on Ebay. He doesn't answer questions regarding the camera's he has for sale.
He shields off the biddings, so you can't judge - if at all possible - whether it might be an honest sale.

Yes, I, for one, have no allusions about our new member. Private biddings can be misused quite easily.
