Hi Jim,

      How long did you have to wait for your Graflex D?  I'm
thinking of sending my Graflex Press 5x7 to Grimes'.  It's
the shutter and a new focusing rail.  BTW, I found six
5x7 film holders with no little expense and trouble, that's
probalby enough, 12 shots.

     What did he do to your Graflex?  Was it working
when you sent it to him?
