Equinox Photographic's

• Busch Tribees wood camera - Marketed through the Busch Camera Co., London. Marked Tribees, also the seller, Fred Lloyd, Liverpool. Groundglass back, red bellows, wood bed. But a big surprise is the lens, not the usual aplanat or the like. This one is a 9 inch f9 Telar in Unicum shutter! Telars stand out today as some of the best teles ever made. Glass is good with no visible defects or damage. $128 another view
• Kodak 35mm film adapter for 9x12 cm cameras and Fluorite Enlarger. Extremely rare! There is a similar adapter made from a pre-war Kodak camera, but this one is from a post-war model. It was intended to allow the user to turn the enlarger into a copy camera, or to allow 35mm film in Recomar and other sheet-film cameras. In all the years we have seen photo equipment at shows, museams, and collections, we have never seen another one. It will fit in the back of 6.5x9cm cameras, not just the smaller Recommar. And can still actually be used. It has a small ground glass viewer inside so the user can see exactly what image he is capturing. Thus, the camera becomes a 35mm view camera, and can use any of the equipment's unusual abilities, such as front rise, tilts, etc. $38 another view

We are starting to list some brass [mostly] view lenses usable primarily for display, but all are in fact usable. They are great to fill the hole in that wood camera you put away. All have mounting flange unless stated otherwise, but if used for appearance those without can just be wedged into a tight hole. Ask about physical size if necessary. THEY ARE LISTED UNDER "LARGE FORMAT."
