Date Introduced: - ; Years Manufactured: c.1891-1903
Construction: front focus via rack and pinion (gears internal to base) and rear focus via push-pull; double swing; reverse by removable back; three-piece lens board
Materials: mahogany body; mahogany base; brass hardware
Sizes Offered: 5x7; 5x8; 6½x8½; 8x10
Notes:

      This model is an English style compact; in which the front standard attaches to end of geared front base, the back standard slides, and there is a built-in tripod base.  Despite a seemingly long production run, and the popularity of other English-type models, especially those of the Rochester Optical Co., this is a rarely encountered camera.
