I have searched everywhere, Yahoo, google, graflex.org, Photo.net, and here and I cannot find a thing on this what so ever. Am I just horrible at finding information on the things that I buy? All that I know is that this is a two lens configuration that goes on the 4x5 Graflex camera. Does anyone know anything about it?


Thanks
Dave

I can't tell you much more than the thing itself can. If yours is complete it will have a Packard shutter behind the two lenses and a splitter like the very old stereo cameras to give you two almost identical images on 4" X 5". You could use it for taking stereo images, though as the name indicates it was sold for identification photo use.

Well thats more then what I had before. So I take it you've heard of them before? Do you know if it will fit on the speed graphic or not?

Heres the link to the ebay auction.

Could this possibly have a different name then what I have?
