An Ensign 6x9 on 120 roll film camera, recently purchased, in quite good condition mechanically, it all works!... Not sure exactly which model, but it resembles the Ensign Ranger, but has the early type struts that date from the 1930's. Later Rangers in the post war period had a simplified struts with a middle hinge like Agfa. This on is two speed, 25th and 75th, T & B, Singlo, an everset, made by the German Gauthlier company, the lens is a focusing Ensar anastigmat 107mm, of F7.7 aperture. Needs a good clean, touch up the paint, and polish the leatherette. The lens is clean already, and the test shot was on cut film, 200ASA, showing no problems with the bellow etc. The shutter is quite accurate on speeds. Stephen
