SOLD – Photina Reflex TLR
Photina Reflex TLR - Twin Lens Reflex camera from the 1950's
 
This camera is a vintage pre-owned example of the Photina Reflex - it is in generally good cosmetic condition and appears to operate as expected - two things to point out are that 1). there is damage to the glass in the viewfinder - a chip - this does not effect its purpose too badly - see the pictures -- 2). the front of the case has split at the join with the back - again please see the pictures.

Please see the photographs provided to see the cosmetic condition of this camera clearly from multiple angles.
