This is a highly collectable vintage Kershaw Eight-20 Penguin
This camera is one of the simpler cameras produced by Kershaw-Soho for 120 roll film.
It is a vertical folding camera.
When the bellows is unfolded its front plate is in a fixed position - no moves possible. But despite the camera's simplicity it offers a distance selector with a range from 6 feet to infinity.
Other features include the easily removable camera back and the bakelite film winding knob.
This beautiful camera is in near mint condition and comes in its vintage genuine leather case. All parts except bellows seem to be in perfect working order. Bellows are intact and has no holes but outer casing is loose.
Minimal rust on outer handle, and around inside lens....but to be expected as camera is very old....belonged to grandfather.
Generally metal and screws are in mint condition with no scratches or marks.
An absolute must for any collector. This camera is a rare find in such amazing condition.
Kodak Leather case and clip are in excellent condition...minimal rust on adjustable buckles.
