Welcome kmack! This is sort of like old home week, as we used to say. I'm from the East Bay, Point Richmond actually. An isolated little town between the Freeway and the Bay. It's great to see someone from back home on the other side of the Earth.
I see some optics made by Spencer too. I grew up a couple blocks from that factory that was on Sugar Road, as I recall. As a kid we would sneak under the fence and get rejected lenses that would be put out in the back in the trash. My earliest experience with lenses and optics.
Your big Kodak is one that I have noticed for years but never got one. They are very definitely users if you like shooting LF.
Ciao from Italy.
David

I don't know if I will keep the camera or let some else enjoy it, I really want to learn about some of the items I now have. I have been to Point Richmond. It has grown over the years as has seemingly every city here. However, it still feels like it is isolated from the rest of the world, a nice location to escape to. Kevin
