FIG. 6.

For the gallery making no pictures larger than 8×10, the above, figure 6, represents the camera box that is the best fitted in every respect. It is light, compact and durable, and it is most accurately adjusted for cartes de visite, cabinets, 4×4 or 8×10 pictures in every style, full length, half lengths or heads. It has the double swing back, with the tangent movement, and is fitted with the Benster holder, which is represented in the cut.

This style can be had in every variety of finish, from the plain to the most ornamented, in mahogany or ebonized wood, with brass fittings or nickel or silver-plated, as may be most desired.

FIG. 7.

For galleries where larger work is called for, figure 7 represents a box that is made in all the sizes from 11×14 to 25×30, and it is fitted with an attachment (see Fig. 8 for 8×10 to ¼ plate), thus enabling the photographer with one box to fill every order for pictures, from a card to a life-size portrait. p106

FIG. 8.

This box is fitted with the double swing back, tangent p107 movement, the telescope bed, which renders it very compact, and with the Benster holders.
