Agfa Billy-Black bellows film camera (n° 74)

Aircraft manufactured or assembled in germany from 1934 to 1939. Like the 4.5x6 model, this elegant bellows device has as its main interest its way of opening, with the same types of very particular spacers. Its lens is less bright; it is an agfa bilinar that opens at 11. The shutter offers a single shutter speed on 1/25th of a second and exposure b. It has a movable frame viewfinder that the 4.5 X 6 version does not have. The kickstand, to use the camera in installation, is hidden on the back of the lens plate and deploys by rotation. Also under the plate is a device that allows you to lock the shutter. Another small lever allows the installation of an additional lens; a portrait windscreen for shots between 2.5 and 5 m. In 1935, this device was worth 147 francs. It is a very beautiful decorative object in very good condition, in its leather bag with period instructions and soft trigger. Fast delivery, neat packaging.
