Description: The Ansco No. 7 is a horizontal style folding rollfilm camera dating to ca. 1905. This compact, well-made, wood-bodied camera delivered a surprisingly large 4 x 5 inch negative on Ansco No. 10 roll film. It produced postcard size prints. The lens and shutter of this Ansco No. 7 were made by Wollensak Optical Company of Rochester, NY USA. The Wollensak lens has stops of f/8 to f/128 and the pneumatic shutter offers speeds of 1 to 1/100 second, plus time and bulb. It has red bellows. The bellows on this camera have some black tap covering some of the bottom creases in the back of the bellows. They are not light tight I never noticed this until I was taking pictures of it today. The camera body is constructed of mahogany; metal parts are brass and nickel plated brass. The Ansco No. 7 features lens rise/fall and shift adjustments for image control. The back opens easily. The viewfinder has a covering. There is no strap. Considering the camera is 119 years old, the leather covering on the camera is in good condition with a few exceptions. Most noticeable is on the right side of the camera (see picture 6). Closed the camera measures 9x5x2 inches. This is a beautiful very old camera that would be a great addition to any collection.
