I wonder how much this will go for and who will win the auction, far east? shipping abroad would be a bit costly.

As things are over here I doubt if it will reach the starting price. I've got a 25 inch T T & H lens and the bellows draw on my 11 x 14 is just silly.
Best wishes,
Pete.

What format is the camera - can you tell from the pictures?

Just another implementation of the "Big Bertha" idea. Looks like -- could be wrong -- a 5x7, as were many of the Graflex-based Berthas. Cricket camera, most likely. Gandolfi made 'em too.

If you take lens only, you go down to 5 kilos. I think that's manageable to ship overseas. The rest is camera like any other but has steel bellows.
