    Description

    Vintage Century Penny Picture Camera 5 x 7 inch format. No lens holder included.
    Everything functions with ease.  Bellows are in very good shape, with old pieces of tape at two spots.  Camera is in very good condition.
    The Century Penny Picture camera was manufactured by the Century Camera Company from approximately 1900 to 1907.
    Trade Catalog Description: Without question, the Century Penny Picture Camera is the most substantial and efficient camera of its kind ever placed on the market. The camera is solidly constructed, of mahogany and cherry, and has a bellows capacity of 17 inches.
    The back is made to slide both vertically and horizontally and permits making one, two, four, six, eight, twelve, sixteen or twenty-four exposures on the same 5 x 7 plate. This camera is fitted with a quick-acting focusing knob, while all working parts have been constructed of material sufficiently heavy to overcome the many objectionable features of the multiplying cameras heretofore supplied.
    Portrait Lens, and Packard Shutter, leaves nothing to be desired in the line of a complete penny picture outfit.
    The specific feature of this outfit is the new spacing device which consists of detachable rods with appropriate holes, one rod controlling the horizontal movements and the other the vertical ones. By setting the rod in advance for the spacing desired, the sliding back will register without further attention, by moving to successive holes, as indicated by the clicks. The focal capacity of the Century Pennny picture camera is 17 in. size of lens board is 6 1/2 x 6 1/2 in.
    Please look at all photos and ask any questions prior to paying to reduce any grief or waste of each other's time.  What you see in the photos is what you get.  Camera will be shipped with the base (rails) unassembled in order to fit in a smaller box. Reassembly is just a matter of four screws to secure it back in to position (note the screws on the bottom in the last photo).
    Thanks for your interest!
