*MASSIVE* c1917 5x7 Folmer & Schwing AUTO GRAFLEX VINTAGE CAMERA TT&H COOKE LENS For Sale

This item is being relisted due to non payment by the previous winner.Here is a HUGE really nice c1917 (#90948) 5x7 Folmer & Schwing AUTO GRAFLEX large format SLR camera in excellent display condition. THIS CAMERA WILL NEED THE SHUTTER BLIND SERVICED (it is 101 years old!) to be a user as it is a bit dry and hesitant in operation, it only winds so far and gets stuck. The actual winding/firing mechanism seems fine. Everything else works well and the carry handle is still attached. The bellows is good and focus is smooth. The lens is a genuine British f4.5 Thomas Taylor & Hobson COOKE AVIAR with slight haze but is free of fungus and there are no scratches or other marks. Apertures are smooth in operation.
Also included is a 5x7 slotted film holder for using the still available sheet film, untested but again perfect for display. Please have a good look at all the photos.
Australian and overseas insured postage at cost (it is very heavy!) If actual shipping is less than quoted I will refund the difference.
Happy offerding and good luck!
