Zeiss Volta 146/3 c1927-31 Folding plate camera single extension, radial arm focusing 6.5x9cm. Carl Zeiss Jena Tessar 1:4.5 f=10.5cm. Zeiss Ikon KLIO shutter T,B,100,50,25,10,5,2,1  with f/stops 4.5,5.6,8,11,16,22,32. With wire frame finder, waist level viewer along with leather viewer on ground glass.

photo.net was starting a contest with vintage cameras (pre 1970) Thought this would be a great time to overhaul a "Real Classic" Pictures of the camera before a little touch up. The shutter fires on all speeds and sounds good no work was done on it. The lens a Tessar 105 needed just minor cleaning and is now ready for another 75 years. The bellows were a little dry and I treated them and reglued the inside liner one small hole was patched with 3D Paint. The body was cleaned and redyed black and a top finish coat added. I found a series 4 adapter and lens hood along with a set of B&W filters. I have a Suydam roll film adapter so I can shoot 120 film.
