This Rietzschel is handsome has some problems. The main body is cracked in one corner and the folding part does not close completely (see last photo). The ground glass holder (and presumably any film holder) does not lock in place and can slide off the body. Shutter fire but slower speeds sound irregular. A nice display piece, but making images would require some rehabilitation.
I can combine shipping to reduce your costs. If you make multiple purchases at the same time, I will refund you the excess shipping.

About Camera Sanctuary:
Like you, I love cameras. I bring all manner of equipment into the Camera Sanctuary in the hope that I can place it in a new home. I handle everything from collector’s pieces to total beaters, Leica to Lomo, Alpa to Argus. You can buy from me secure in the following:
- My descriptions are honest. Some cameras have been babied, and some have been brutalized. There’s room in the world for both, but I won't try to sell one as the other.
- I won’t pretend I don’t know things.
- I’ll take back anything that doesn’t meet your expectations.
