Description: Here are Two old KODAK Cameras--- one a Folding 35mm Retina I b, made in Germany in the 1950's, and the other is of the Bantam family of 828 film cameras, made in Rochester, N.Y. in the late 1930's. They are in Nice Condition, Not Mint, but working and in nice shape. I don't know too much about these cameras but with some rudimentary testing, I think they are both in Very Good Condition---- reasonably working, solid, fairly clean with no known broken parts that I can see. The shutters work (but probably not 100% accurately), the lenses are fairly clear with no broken glass or other problems, perhaps a bit of haze with a few tiny specs of dust inside. The exterior condition is Very Nice--- all the leather covering is there, although it is curling up in a few spots, the metal is mostly nice--- some spots of corrosion and other small blemishes, but they are not dented or terribly corroded. The latches and levers work, the Shutters and Winding mechanisms both work well, the lenses look very nice, so they are in Very Good condition for being 70+ years old. But, it is unknown how well they may be to actually Use though. They have not been tested beyond what I describe and what is shown in the photos and I may have also missed some details. But I think the Retina should be very usable the way it sits--- or as a nice collectible. What you see is what you'll get--- the actual items for sale are pictured case included)... please examine the photos. Continental US Shipping will be $11.50. It will be packed well and safe. International Shipping via the ebay program. PLEASE READ THIS--- By Buying this you also Agree with this: Reality check.... I am not Amazon or a professional Store seller--- just a camera collector and collector of various other things selling a surplus of Used items. I'm not here trying to rip anybody off or sneak one past you. But that said... I'm not into having things go back and forth based on Opinion, or risk "part swapping" either. So it's being sold As Is, No Warranty, No Buyer's Remorse, No Try-outs, No Returns--- being sold as is, as old relics with flaws. I sell OLD, Used items and I try to be detailed and truthful, but I can't describe every every millimeter of it, so there may be a nick or blemish or a couple specs of dust that I failed to mention... but they would hardly diminish it... unless you expect everything to be 100% Perfect and Like New. Repeat--- these are Very Old, Vintage, Antique, Used items so it can't be as new--- being sold for collectible purposes, or Parts or Repair--- Not in Perfect Condition or as perfectly working cameras made recently. What you see is what you'll get and I package my items well, so it arrives in the same condition as shown. SEE MY OTHER Listings FOR MORE Interesting Items---- Lots of Photography and Camera stuff.
