Large camera on tripod on display

Caption on reverse: "This is another view of my latest camera, showing the focussing lever, clamping arrangement, and also the cable connecting the shutter pin to the back. This cable idea permits faster operation...as immediately upon withdrawing the plateholder the shutter opens for focussing, and upon inserting the holder for the next picture the shutter automatically closes. This camera will focus on anything from 3 ft. to infinity, but one drawback is its weight; it weighs 12 lbs." Stamped in ink: "Jul 3 1941" Presumably written by Galen Biery. See also photo GB2317.
