1920's 4x5 Korona Self-Casing "Cycle" Style View Camera: Manufactured by the Gundlach-Manhatten Optical Company. Its lens is called GEM; its glass is clean and clear and free of any fungus or dust. The shutter clicks as it should, and the f. stops move from f.8 to f.128 smoothly. It has a leather covered body. The ground glass is intact and the springs are tight, as they should be. The leather is in decent shape for a camera that is 100 years old. The bellows could use some tender care. The bed/door opens, closes and locks tight. The opener button is under the leather on the top.
