Graflex 5x7" SLR

I posted about this in the film thread over a year ago. Vanguisher109 recently asked to see some pictures. I tried to send them PM, but never got it to work. So now everyone gets to see it.

What a cool beast of a camera!

I'd bet the leather covering took the better part of a cow

How many frames-per-secondhour can it do???

Bet that camera has an interesting history. Probably used by people earning their daily crust with it.

Do you know any details of it's working life ?
