Default Please help identify this camera?????

I have an old camera I'm interested in selling. It belonged to my
grandfather. You can see a couple pictures of it at:

http://home.netcom.com/~worldforfree...ges/camera.jpg

those these aren't clear. Some hints:

Under the lens it says IIex Shutter. The lense itself casy Citer
Anastigmatic and the lens speed knob about the lens says ACME on it.

The camera is in rough condition, and other than those markings, I
have no idea of the brand, let alone the value.

Can you help me?

Please respond to: , and NOT to this thread. I've
sent this message to several groups in the hopes that someone can
help.


Thanks,

It looks like and old Box Brownie to me. Might get a fiver for it from some
old sentimental fool at a car boot sale.

odds are it is a Kodak folder. open the back, they are frequently
labeled as to film type
if you are lucky it will take 620, which is 120 on a different spool
much more likely it is one of the many other films Kodak made

It's unfortunately a worthless heap of junk. Could be an Agfa or Balda or
whatever.

no markings inside the back, The film plate is slightly more than 3
1/2" wide, if that helps. The spool itself is 3 3/4" wide.
