Houghton Triple Victo

[IanG]

Picked up this camera on a UK forum, needed a small repair to the front.

The shutter needs restoring, but then I have quite a few LD The lens and panel are in fact from my Thortnon Pickard Triple Imperial.

The camera had been repaired using some sort of plastic/composite material to replace a missing ?broken piece that the front standard is hinged/screwed to. I cut some mahogany from a brokenn 12"x10" plate holder. I already had spare tripod legs.

Impressive piece of kit.

Added a nice Sinclair extenable lens hood which arrive today, first made around the same time or just before this camera model was introduced.

A nice and very effective old lens hood.
