Data available at graflex.org. 931850 is quite late.

It's like dating a Deardorff, but from the other side of the tracks...
for a more serious and accurate answer ask over at the graflex exchange (http://www.southbristolviews.com/graflexchange/). There is a thread dedicated to serial numbers and production dates.

Yeah, I tried dating a Crown Graphic, but she left me for some old photo-journalist...
There should be a sub-forum for "Topics titles that make good straight lines".
Now, candy is dandy
and liquor might be quicker.
but for my pretty Speed Graphic,
Type 55 is magic.

My sister's dating a Crown Prince, but I guess you don't wish to know that (and neither does my bro-in-law)
