    Free Shipping available."

    Maybe I'll get a few...
    I'll take a dozen please !
    By the way , has any living soul here in the forum ever seen a 21" Struss ???

    I've never seen a 21" Struss . I saw in last month Struss 9" for graflex version the fist time, Lens mount on old Folmer Graflex 3a. (lens in quartz version?)

    The 9s and 12s are more common . Still almost impossible to come by . I have seen a 15" and one 18 " but the the 21" .... This is like a myth !
