Antique 5x7 Seroco View Camera 1890's Brass Lens & Unicum Shutter with Wood Tripod

Antique 5x7 Seroco View Camera 1890's Brass Lens & Unicum Shutter w/ Wood Tripod. This camera has a very nice antique look (because it is) Most likely will be used as decoration but could possible still take pictures. I gave a quick look in the bellows and I don't think they are leaking an light but it was only a quick look. I did notice when i closed up the bellows that there looks like a small repair to the top corner of the pleats in the bellows Hard to see but it feels harder than the rest of the bellows. Nothing really looks broke on the camera but everything looks old. The Seroco Rectilinear Rapid 5x7 lens glass is surprisingly nice. No scratches or mold and fairly clear. The Unicum shutter looks good and operates at all shutter speeds.

Please note this is over 100 years old and is an antique. Can be used but please keep your expectations of performance in check. It does work well except one of the leg set screws threads is stripped half way down which is scary.

I put a steal shim in so it didn't go down to the stripped threads but it does need to be addressed. If your going to use the camera for display I would recomend drilling holes in all three legs and adding a screw so they are firmly locked in place.
