Camera
This "The Sanderson Regular Model" camera has the maker and model details on two applied plaques to the front, the lettering to the top plaque has faded over the years.
I can't find any major holes to the tapered black leather bellows, however, there are a few small splits to the corners of the folds, as well as the usual scuffs, marks and fading to the creases and corners that you would expect.
The ground glass plate measures 4 3/4 by 6 1/2 , I believe this is 1/2 plate size.
There are no major splits or cracks to the mahogany that I can find, however, there are also the usual scuffs, marks and scratches that you would associate with a well used camera of this age.
The leather handle to the top is well attached.
The catches to the lens board are replacements, the rest of the brass work appears to be present and in working order and it has retained much of its' original lacquering. The side struts are marked "Sanderson's Patents, 16983".
The camera folds away as it should.
I have tried to show the condition in the photographs
The camera is fitted with a "Thornton Pickard" "Snap Shot" shutter, this appears to be working, but is slow. The lens is missing.
