You can see the grey patches on the bellows. They are not fungus but for some reason the coloring has loosen. The skin is excellent given that the camera is about eighty years old.
Looking at these two cameras you can see about a 1/200 of the various types of the folding cameras manufactured by Kodak from the late 19th to the middle of the 20th century. |
