Just acquired a Nagel 74 6x9 folding roll film camera with a leitz Elmar 10.5cm f4.5 lens and Compur 1sec. - 1/300 + B&T ... no model name visible , no rangefinder , no lens movements but McKeown shows "LIBRETTE" as being model number 74 .. but makes no mention of Leitz Elmar variant. Hope to take some pix later this week but meantime have found no reference to this model anywhere .. but aware that 127 film model used Leitz 50/3.5 Elmar. This 74 has folding wire frame finder as well as the optical finder.

Has anyone seen this model listed anywhere?

I am aware of history of Nagel Camera Co. ref Retina development etc.

Cheers
