Greetings from a LF newbie!

I am so NEW that I can say that I have yet to even shoot a single sheet of LF film! :smile: But will be working on changing that in the next few days, though.

I had the fortune of being top bidder at "that" auction site and am now the owner of a Crown Graphic, w/ side kalart rangefinder, and Kodak 152mm f4.5 ektar.

My first question (out of curiousity) is: what's the manufacture date of this Crown Graphic. Serial number is 887184.

Many thanks for your help, and I must say that I have already learned A LOT from many of you on this website! Happy holidays!

So much for adding a new forum just for these questions. Doesn't help if you don't read the choices. Guess you didn't make it clear enough, Les.

Since he posted this nearly two years before I put the new forum up, I'll give him a pass.

My apologies to all. Once again I was "often wrong but never in doubt".
