Levy Roth Berlin Minnigraph Type A

Sensational discovery of the almost unknown Type A Minnigraph, listed in original Minnigraph brochure (copy included) from March 1916 as the 'cheaper version with achromatic lens' and 'newly developed body painting instead of leather covering', in good condition, the lens assembly engraved 'D.R.P. Minnigraph, No.10002'. The early serial number of the lens '10002' and the body '004' (stamped twice inside the body) show also the rarity of this historic camera - one of the first to use 35mm cine film for 18x24mm exposures. No other sales of this camera are recorded !
