Hello Folks,
Anyone kind enough out there to give me a date on a Miniature 2x3 SPEED GRAPHIC with an Optar 101mm f4.5 lens,Kalart rangefinder,spring back,and serial No.448870.
Kind Thanks.

Is it a Miniature Speed or a Pacemaker 23?

The serial dates it to late '47

Thanks Gandolf:
Mine has a silver front (looks like a Pacemaker reduced)of the '49 period,and with the mahogany body unlike the Century.
Looks like someone has waved a magic wand over it and come out a miniature Pacemaker when you stand it next to them.

Would that be correct,dear expert?..or would it have another title.It seems you don't see many of these around-more the Century model.
