Up for auction is this very nice ROC Premier Folding Camera for 4" x 5" photos. This is the first version of this model camera produced in 1892. Comes with the shutter built into the lens board. Shutter still fully operational. Two film holders are included. Label on top door shows that most likely the camera was sold from a Denver store. Camera neatly folds up into a 7" x 6.5" x 7.5" cube. Bellows have some wear and a small split at the top back which is hardly noticeable. Leather covering has been replaced with black pebbled goat skiver that replicates the original covering exactly. As you can see by the pictures, the re-covering is an exceptional job.This camera is very uncommon and seldom comes up for auction.Returns accepted if not as described. Please ask questions.
