Lot 165
It was used by J.E. Hale in his studio and out in the field (One of the cameras used to photo Susan B. Anthony and other Suffragists, etc..). The plate-holder is made on the Benster principle, by which the sensitive plate, no matter what size, is brought automatically to the exact center of the holder. Side gauges prevent it getting out of center laterally. The distance between the plate and screen is regulated from the outside of the camera by two knobs. Indicators tell the exact separation. The metal portions touched by the wet plate are unacted upon by the wet plate, while there is a bottle in the lower bar to catch the drippings of nitrate of silver solution.
