Name: Sent: 25/03 16:14 I hope you can help me. I inherited many years ago a Mars Detective camera circa 1893, from my grandfather. It is in pretty good condition but the lens is missing, everything else is there. I do not know where to get it valued or where to sell it. My grandfather had a cinamatic shop in London 1930-1944 and had this camera on display in the shop. What do I do with it allow it to contiue collecting dust? Please.

Patty Name: Sent: 06/01 10:52 Hi Ake; it is a bit late, but all the best for the new year. Are you still addicted to collecting cameras? I just purchased a one off; it was built by Professor Clarence Rainwater, who started the American swap meets for cameras in the 60's. It has a very nice Schneider 47mm f8 lens on a 6x9 camera.

I had never seen another Underwood camera until today when I ran across your website. I have one, but its not exactly like yours, but very close. Mine has a name, it reads "The Field". It has a wooden tripod (in 3 seperate pieces) that attach to the underside. It still has its original lens cap. Are there any books on E & T Underwood cameras? Do you know if there are others with "The Field" written on them? I'd appreciate any background you might have. Thank you.

I've got an identical camera, very complete with an Emil Busch A-G Rathenow, Weitwinkel Aplanat Ser.C.F:15, No 2 F=150mm. The wooden box is almost identical, despite some iron elements. Therefore, I'ld like to know how the manufacturing of a camera like this was handled? Was it mass production? How can you explain the minimal differences? Did Busch manufacture the complete camera? Is the period really around 1920 or could it be pre 1900? Thanks in advance for your help. If it's necessary I'll send you a picture of the camera! Kind regards, Gerrit Bon.
