<p>The number 258646 is the patent number for the Compur shutter.<br>
I have just aqquired a simmilar camera, though the lens i marked Anastigmat "Skopar" 1:4,5 . F=11,4cm. When removing the shutter for cleaning, it had a pencil writing on the back 115, I guess it's the "real" focal length. The shutter was fitted to the camera with a rubber ring between shutter and standard, maybe to allow adjustment of focal point for infinity.<br>
My camera has a wire frame around the lens for use with frame finder on side, also it has the same brilliant finder, which can be turned to the side for portrait or landscape views.<br>
Film size is 116 - 6.5x11cm. From what I found on the net, the camera could be 1927-1929.<br>
Pics recorded of and with the camera will be up in short time.<br>
