[LargeFormat] Linhof Color

[Ole Tjugen]

That's right, 1960s to early 1970s. Having used one now for several years, I find it hard to believe that it could go wrong to the amount of
$200?

The camera is simply the front and back of a Technika chopped off and mounted on a tubular rail. Very simple, very sturdy, very 
transportable...
