Description

The Junior Reflex is a simple SLR box camera, with a conventional shutter rather than the more usual focal plane shutter that one normally associates with this type of camera.

This example is in good condition (though it needs a good clean) with only minor damage to the leather covering. It came with a single wooden DDS, although marked as a PREMO slide.

Notes

Compare this to the more conventional, but substantially bigger, 5 x 7 reflex camera from the same maker.
