Rolleicord-1 Art Deco “Tapeten” 1934 Triotar 1:4,5 / 7,5cm

Description

The
Art Deco Rolleicord I
, in Germany colloquially known as the 'Tapeten-Rolleicord' (wallpaper Rolleicord) was produced by F&H from November 1933 to March 1936. In total, units of the Rolleicord I Model 1 (factory Model K3 - 510) were built.
The camera is nickel plated and decorated with a trompe-l'oeil grid on all sides bar the bottom. A depth of field  table has been attached to the back. The camera was sold with depth-of-field tables in German, French (this unit) and English. In parallel with the decorated versions, a plain model was also produced, covered with standard black leatherette. Towards the end of the production run, a removable camera back was introduced, which then allowed for optional back replacements, such as a 35mm adapter (Rolleikin I) and a sheet film adapter.
