I don't say 'ONE LIKE' but 'THE' Adrian Boer camera. With documentation.The camera dates from ca. 1890. e 1890. It is in perfect condition. The wood is perfect and the lens is in perfect condition. The lacquer of the lens is the original one. I have not wanted to clean it, but it can be done, with a little steel wool, if desired. It is an Austrian lens from the house of Voigtländer & Sohn of Vienna, serial number 69081, one of the best brands of the time and valued today, just the lens, at 400-500 euros. The camera allows to attach almost any type of lens, thanks to the ingenious and rare diaphragm-shaped system. The camera is huge. It measures 31.5 x 28 cm. The tripod is the original one and reaches 1 meter and 46 cms in height.This camera belonged to the early 20th century Dutch photographer Adrian Boer and has been documented in the 1969 book, Adrian Boer, Pioneer of Art Photography. The book is included in the auction. This book features both portraits of the artist, as well as some of his instrumentation, including some of his cameras. I have marked some of the wood grain, so that the camera can be correctly identified.
