Here is a rare 7x11 Eastman View Improved Model No. 2 large format view camera. The camera body shows wear from use. The front and rear standards move on the track but are stiff to move in areas. The movements on the front and rear standards all work fine. The 7x11 ground glass back is intact. In the picture below it looks like it is discolored but it is not and is just a reflection. It is missing one locking knob on the left side of rear standard that effects the tilt of the rear standard. The locking knob on the right side holds it steady fine. The bellows are present but show a good amount of wear with light leaks. They could be repaired but maybe should be replaced. The locking member on the front track to lock it in place to the central base is not locking in place. It looks like it is a fraction off and not going in the locking slot to turn and lock. The front lensboard has an opening that is approx 3 1/4\" in size. It does not come with a rear track. One of the two clips that holds the front track in the upright position is missing but it holds fine upright with one clip. Please look at the pictures. The 7x11 size cameras are much rarer then the more often found 8x10 versions. Check out my other sales for more large format brass lenses and cameras. I can combine shipping on multiple purchases.
