- Photos NOT OK to edit
So I purchased a group of what I thought were enlarger parts and lenses. It was a terrible photo and hard to see what was there but I took a risk for $90 (NZ)
We went into Lockdown here in New Zealand just after I purchased the lot so only received it today.
Wow was surprised at what I found.
Camera 1 - a Sanderson Regular Model. Bellows are good just needs to be re attached, plus a couple of the brass knobs are missing.
Camera 2 - very interesting, looks like a Tropical Sanderson. Its been painted with a metallic looking blue paint. It was attached to be rigged up as part of an enlarger. Hard to believe someone would do that kind of thing. It's criminal.
Two Hobson Cooke Lenses
Two in names brass lenses and a large Kodak lens.
Just wondering how to identify if the second Sanderson is the tropical model? It's slightly bigger than another Sanderson I have. Will have to strip it down very carefully.
Not sure what New Zealanders do to cameras over here. This is the third one I've had that's been covered in paint!
