I bought a Graphic View II off eBay in near mint condition, and I'm sure I'm going to be happy with it. It has the tripod mount (very important), and it has an adapter board so it can use lensboards from my Speed Graphic.

But where can I get original Graphic View lensboards or another adapter board? I ran searches all over eBay last night and didn't find anything. I am ordering a Speed board with #1 Copal hole from Columbus Camera Group, but I'd like to have original lensboards (or nice copies) if possible.

<blockquote>Hi,</blockquote>
my GVII takes the same boards as my Anniversary Speed Graphic, so if you're looking for boards you can ask for the old style wooden boards and be in good shape. The last time I looked, KEH had them, so try http://www.keh.com. <br>

Very easy to make out of hardwood plywood
(hobby shop) all you need is a coping saw,
sandpaper, some black paint, and you can make them by the dozens!
