Can others edit my Photos
Photos OK to edit
Hello, I just acquired what may be a rare camera. I can find very little info online and this camera is NOT in my McKeowns guide (2001 Edition). What I do know is that it was made by Chas. Tyler & England Brothers Ltd. of London, England. They were taken over by Butcher in 1907. The only other references I found were for photo christmas cards, mounts etc. Does anyone know anyting about this camera? I will post a photo later if I get time. The lens says Dr. Farber Rapid on it. Below the lens plate it says Teb Film No. 8 and on the leather strap it says TEB. Any info will be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks for the info! I hadn't found that particular article. I did find a site with some more info on a No. 0 as well as some of the mounts, etc mentioned in your post. Cannot find anything on any other models. I will be selling it on eBay and wish I could get an idea of its value...seems like it is certainly rare? I cannot find it in my McKeowns book (2001) at all. I wonder if anyone has a newer edition that it might be in? Will try to post a photo later today.

Here is the link with the info that I was able to find

And another from "THE PHOTOGRAM No. 9" with more info on TEB
 
Hmm... I seem to recall that the TEB camera was made by the Hüttig (under a different name) in Germany and then imported in England. It's all so confusing now...

A picture can really help.
