The image on the magnifying ground glass is very bright. The Reflex mirror is very bright and has no scratches and only some internal dust.  Internally the camera is very clean.  There are almost no signs the camera has been used (I did use it for testing ). The  Viewfinder  opens correctly and the "Pop-Up" Magnifier lens is perfect. The image on the  Ground Glass is bright and very sharp.
A Really Beautiful original design and  Superb Construction. Almost  Impossible to find in this exceptional condition and certainly the Finest TLR Made in U.S.A. and one of the most beautiful cameras ever made!  
The camera is equipped with an  "Automatic Film Counter" and "Double Exposure" prevention device that works correctly.  It is also possible to take "double exposures."  
The camera has been cleaned, lubricated and adjusted by a highly qualified  camera repair expert just before listing and works perfectly. Please view all photos of the actual camera for condition.  The camera has some of the other features of the very first model that were changed. The chrome film roller and flash sync.  It was found that the film sometimes slipped with the original roller. However  it still has the small  tripod  socket mount.. There are other modifications internally as well. I purchased the camera as a collectible for display, never used it except for testing ,  and always stored it correctly in my Climatized Humidity controlled Storage.  In "ready to use" condition and add to  a  vintage camera collection.
Originally designed for the U.S. Army Signal Corp. in 1941 (photo 17). A Civilian model was "pre-proposed" in the Jan. 1946 . The camera was finally offered for sale in late 1947. There were problems with film slippage and this modified model, with improved film roller replaced it. External  flash sync. was factory installed, and a round metal disc around the tripod socked was added to this model.
 A really Unique example of the Most Perfected American made TLR and a Magnificent Object.
I should mention that the 83mm lens covered the  corners of the 2 1/4 X2 1/4 inch negative better than the 75mm lenses used by Rollie.
Photo 18 gives an idea of the internal complexity of the camera.

Photo 15 represents one of the original drawings for the camera by Henry Dreyfuss, reknowned Industrial designer including the Bell Telephone hand & wall phones, Streamlined 29th Century "Mercury" locomotive, Royal typewriter and Polaroid SX 70 cameras.
With the Very Rare Complete Accessory Set comprising of 5 Filters, 3 Portrait lenses, Lens Shade, Sunshade, Filter Holder and Original instructions in its fitted Leather case (see photos 10, 11, 14  & 16.    From my extensive collection of rare Vintage camera that I am selling because of my age.
