This camera is a real beauty. The pictures really don't do this camera justice. It is from around 1912-13. This camera has been conserved quite well. It had a slight case of bronze disease so it was prudent to disassemble the entire camera in order to halt the progression of the brass/bronze damaging oxidation. The good news is that the camera has been protected by oil in places that normally wouldn't get this much attention. It also has been adjusted and lubricated so it is the smoothest and best running Moy & Bastie I have ever seen.
