Well, I banged my Crown Graphic's viewfinder against something and the rear paralax adjuster shattered. :-(

I still have the little lens, and am holding it in place with tape, so I can sorta use it still.

These are probably rare as hen's teeth, but ... any help appreciated -- either a whole viewfinder or the dial gizmo. Ebay doesn't have anything.

Thanks,

George

There are 3 Graphic viewfinders on the auction site right now plus one for the Super Graphic. The best way to find them is to go to the camera & photo section and type in "graflex." There will be 200-300 listings which don't take long to check out. The viewfinders are not rare and show up regularly.

There was one I wanted to bid on today and forgot. Senior moments are getting longer these days. Anyhoo, ebay seller canyonlandgraphics usually has at least one on the block. Check out their ebay store, also. They're not hard to find. It just takes patience and constant scrutiny of the auction thingie.
