13 x 18 cm folding plate camera produced by Kruegener, Frankfurt and sold by Leitz, with E. Leitz Wetzlar 6/18 cm Summar lens in brass/nickel, Bausch & Lomb shutter, red leather bellows, nickel focusing panel engraved ‘Summar 180 mm’, with Russian dealer’s plaque. In very fine condition. LITERATURE Paul-Henry-van Hasbroeck (ed.), Leica, a History illustrating every Model and Accessory, p. 1-24, showing a camera with focal-plane shutter. During the early 1900s Ernst Leitz had embarked on manufacturing a range of photographic lenses. He soon decided on a separate undertaking: the marketing of a range of plate cameras. Leitz bought the cameras (produced by Kruegener, Hüttig and later by ICA) and sold them under their own code names (Klapp and Moment Kamera) and fitted with their own lenses (Summar and Periplan). Ony very few of these cameras survived; production was very limited and not very successful. Um 1900 begann Ernst Leitz die Produktion von Objektiven für Fotografie. Bald entschied er, eine Reihe von Plattenkameras zu vermarkten. Leitz ließ die Kameras von Kruegener, Hüttig und später ICA herstellen und verkaufte diese unter ihrem Namen und Bestellcode (Klapp and Moment Kamera) mit ihren eigenen Objektiven (Summar and Periplan). Nur sehr wenige Exemplare haben überlebt. Die Produktion war sehr gering, ebenso der Erfolg dieser Plattenkameras.
