Henry,
I dont get much bragging time on my camera collection, but estimate I have saved 150/175 Graflex/Graphic cameras from a life on the "No Workie" shelf over the past
20/25 years, and have only 7 bodies that I consider to far gone to save!
Parts are getting expensive and harder to find every day!
And 45PSS,thanks for the little "smiley", took that photo with a 2x3 Mini-Speed about 5 years ago.....transfered the photo to the computer to keep a file on my collection!
I have many instruction sheets that include photos, and I use a digital camera to take all camera and accessory photos now,
>Shamefull<, but much more convenient (since I dont have a camera to use) haha
have a nice day.....Bert

Bert, thanks again for rescuing these cameras in such a magnificent way! And thanks also for sharing your vast experience so freely with others on the board who need help with their various projects. When I go to the board every day and see your name by a post, I never fail to read the thread because I know I will learn something. You the man!
