For your consideration is this original antique Rochester Optical folding wooden camera with bellows. Included is a Petite Simpkinson & Miller Rapid Rectilinear Lens. Simpkinson & Miller were agents located in Cincinnati, Ohio. The box camera opens and closes using the knob on the bottom to roll out the camera. The bellows remain intact with some wear but no holes or damage that I can find. The brass lens is clearly marked and screws into the camera easily. The lens itself has an issue, it appears to have fine crackling inside. Unsure of the functionality of the lens and camera. It likely needs a lot of cleaning and may need repair to get working again.There is one area of damage to the wood, it is shown in the second picture. The rest remains solid and overall in pretty nice shape. When the bellows are extended, the camera measures about 18\" by 13\" by 12\". It comes with the original case, but the case is in very poor condition and just comes with.
Overall, a fantastic camera for display. Will be a perfect addition to your collection.Shipping will be cost to the United States. International shipping will be cost via USPS. I do not change value on customs forms for any reason.
