(Houghton) Butcher's No.6 Watch Pocket Carbine ~ Tropical Model ~ AMAZING

Description

Return Policy: eBay has recently instituted a minimum return policy of 30 Days (to be considered a "Top Seller") which for used and very often vintage equipment is, in my opinion, too long. And all I sell is used and vintage equipment. I've checked the "No Returns Accepted" box for every item I am offering for sale but that doesn't mean I won't stand behind what I'm selling.
Unless otherwise stated every item will come with a 7 day return privilege from the day you receive it. This is something that I did way back when,
well before
eBay got around to instituting a return policy. And if I've made a mistake (I do on rare occasions) and it is not as described I will also pay for the return shipping. The buyer shouldn't have to pay for my mistakes. However, if you've purchased an item in error (e.g. an FD Canon manual focus lens to use on your EF mount autofocus digital body) or had a change of heart and no longer want the item within the first 7 Days then you're going to pay the return shipping as I shouldn't have to pay for your mistakes or post-purchase decisions. That seems fair to me.
I will also offer warranties of 30 Days or more on certain items. Expect to see that with more user oriented items than with collector oriented items.
Butcher's Watch Pocket Carbine - Tropical
Hello, and thanks for looking. Here we have a vintage folding Butcher's No.6 Watch Pocket Carbine, Tropical Model with 3.75 inch F4.5 Aldis Butcher Anastigmat lens. Lens has some haze and could use a cleaning. Shutter seems to work well. Viewfinder is fairly clear. All seems to works as it should. But never mind all that. This camera is beautiful. I'm not sure if it started out as thin black paint over brass or if it's simply the patina the brass took on after nearly 100 years (these are mid 1920s vintage). And I'm not one to get all worked up about "patina". I like mint, whether it's polished mahogany, shiny brass or supple leather. But this is one of the prettiest cameras I've ever laid eyes on and I'm sure whoever winds up with it will agree and find a prized place for it in their collection. One flaw to note, the red plastic window for checking exposure count on the film roll (120 btw) is missing. I don't think you'll be too upset.
