Series D in nice, shootable condition. I would dearly love to know where to look to find the serial number on this camera. There is a five digit number on the lower corner of the plate on the side that gives the curtain and tension settings for each of the shutter speeds, but it doesn't have that look of a stamped serial number. Perhaps the plate is somewhere else? Thanks, Adam |
