Selflessly Self-involved
I *think* this is an early Ernemann 6x9 folding camera, but the only markings over the camera are DRP and DRGM which are just the German patents marks I thought.
Vario Shutter, Spezial Aplanat lens.
Anyway the original leather was THIN. Like, 0.3mm or something stupid I don't know. Looking very bad too...
Jay's Goatskin is now covering it. I cut the skin a little too short, so it's not covering it as well as I'd like. the paint is still flakey, and some corners need re-sticking. PVA isn't too good!
So hopefully tomorrow I'll sort out all the dodgy corners, fill in the missing paint, and make it look a little nicer overall.
The camera will always be named Ernie, but does anyone know if it is actually some other brand??
