Description

Complete 3 lens Speed Graphic outfit. No. 901391. I believe to be a late 40's Pacemaker.
This is like a time capsule. A look into the tool box of late 40's photographer Claxton Searle.

This set was previously owned by father Manfred Kallweit, owner of Pardee's Cameras in Sacramento CA. Closed 2015. Likely a purchase or trade in some 20 years ago. Has been stored in a dry enviroment since then. Origianlly owned by photographer Claxton Searle. I've researched but could not find much info about him. A very cool property plaque with his San Francisco studio address.
