Original Us Army Air Forces Corps Usaaf Bomber Aircraft Camera Type K-20 In Box

  
Original US Army Air Forces aircraft camera type K-20 in original carrying box. Produced by the Folmer Graflex Corporation. This lot includes the K-20 camera, the box, a mounting bracket, two color lenses or filters, a dark slide, and an unknown tool. It is missing a spool. I don't know if the lens rubber cap is original. It is marked Bell & Howell company and fits the lens perfectly.

The camera is in remarkable condition and is an early (1941) AC contract. It has some yellow number stenciled on it. It appears to be in good working condition. The side handle cranks smoothly, and the trigger does release the mechanism when pressed.

The top aiming glass locks, unlocks and swivels easily. Most of the crackled finish remains. The box is good condition and has its original leather covered handle. It shows some cracks on the paint. It is marked :"Aircraft, Camera type K-20 - Handle with care". This marking was first stenciled in white, and stenciled again in yellow. It is also marked "USAF" in yellow, which indicates that this camera was also used by the USAF in the post-war years. Would make a great WWII bomber-related display!
