Ernemann box camera serial no 7039 similar to Ernemann Minor but with controls on the front panel and fitted with the well regarded ‘Universal Aplanat Extra Rapid’ lens, which appears to be in good order with a clean iris. This lens is indicated with apertures from f 8 to f 64 and the focusing mechanism is smooth. Drop plate mechanism.
The shutter cocking mechanism is below this and this works correctly, there are two shutter release buttons, one for timed and one for ‘B’, they work . There are shutter times on a small round plate but the lever or ‘key’ is absent.
There is a dealer/ plate on the front inscribed TH. PRIESKORN RIGA.
Both sides and bottom black covering are in good order, the two reflecting viewfinders are a little tarnished, but the clear glass windows are intact. There is a small metal plate on the top marked 7039 and a small aperture with numbers indicating the plate being in position to be exposed.
Looking inside, there are a number of stacked plate holders with a little corrosion on them. There is a piece of machinery and a big spring but I do not know how it works. The back covering material is in good order and the two door catches and hinges are good.
Sensible offers for this rare camera will be considered.
Heavy item.
