Professional Camera Manufacturing Co.

Professional Model

 

5x7

Date Introduced: - ; Years Manufactured: c. 1920
Construction: rear focus via rack and pinion (two gear tracks on top of base rails); single swing; reversing by removable back
Materials: white wood; cherry base; black fabric bellows; brass hardware

Notes:  This is a simple, utilitarian (think cheap) camera, manufactured in St. Louis.  Luckily, the manufacturer and the model is declared on the metal label on the upper front standard, or else we would not know anything about this camera.  It was fitted with one of my replacement lens boards, but no lens.
