Antique Box Field Camera & Tripod, English, Accessories, Ornamental, Victorian

This is an antique Field Camera and tripod. An English, mahogany and brass plate camera with accessories and lens, dating to the late Victorian period, circa 1890. Delightful and rare camera set, with superb display appeal that displays a desirable aged patina original condition - some light leak to bellows. Select stocks present deep caramel hues, accompanied by warm brass tones. Articulated tripod can be set to various heights, with three stages of extension to the legs. Camera opens out from a usefully compact folded form, staying open with twist catches. Replete with a quality screw-in lens, with bright objective in good condition. Set of eight slide plates add further period interest, as does the brass Watkins Exposure Meter. Unmarked as such, but in the manner of the contemporary McKellen's patent camera. This is a fascinating antique box field camera and tripod, with charming accessories for those who hold an interest in 19th Century photography. Delivered ready to display.
