Relations with our new interplanetary neighbours were unfortunately soured when their leader was mistaken for a camera...

How about moving this across to the new 'wet plate forum', set up today?

I can add nothing to 'the caption competition'.........................................

but can say that the camera is a Vageeswari, which were manufactured by Vageeswari Camera Works in India and if anyone is interested, they crop up fs on ebay on a monthly basis or so - ebay seller 'photolud' has an interest in restoring them

note - I have no personal or financial connection to said 'photolud'

Thank goodness someone has had the good idea to start a forum on this... There are some of us large format users out there who stilll like to dabble with the dangerous chemicals instead of only using film :-)
