Voigtlander Bessa Folding‎ Camera Anastigmat Skopar 1:4.5 Compur-Rapid Vintage

Vintage Voigtländer Bessa 6x9 folding medium format camera manufactured in Germany during the 1930s. This classic camera features the highly regarded Voigtländer Anastigmat Skopar 105mm f/4.5 lens paired with a Compur shutter, a combination sought after by collectors and film photography enthusiasts. Designed for 120 roll film producing large 6x9cm negatives, the Bessa series helped establish Voigtländer as one of Germany's premier camera makers.  This example remains in very good cosmetic vintage condition with original leatherette covering intact. Bellows extend properly and appear visually clean, though the camera has not been film tested and is being sold as untested. Lens shows normal age-related dust and wear. Original leather carry strap is present but heavily worn with cracking and rust on hardware. Folding mechanism opens and closes as intended. Excellent display piece, collection addition, restoration candidate, movie prop, or vintage film photography project.
