Foto Kino Linders Atelier (01)
The oldest Studio Camera they still have at Foto Kino Linders Venlo (NL).
Here a shot of it when still in use sometime after the studio (called an Atelier in those times) was opened in 1911. With founder Frans Linders as the photographer.
Note that the assistent is operating some kind of electric switch, probably for the studio lighting.
The sign on the wall to the right says :
"Men wordt beleefd verzocht bij opname te betalen"
which roughly translates to :
"We kindly ask you to pay while the photograph is taken".
It is still unknown which type of Globus this Atelier (Studio) camera is. More information welcome !
Update 21/05/2025:
Some of the knobs are identical to those used on the Globus Stella studio cameras of the Neue Görlitzer Camera-Werke.
This company, founded in 1920, took over the Globus studio camera production from the Ernemann subsidiary company Herbst & Firl.
Herbst & Firl was founded in 1878 in Görlitz Germany and taken over by Ernemann in 1899.
Guess it is now save to say that this camera was a Globus made by one of the 3 companies mentioned who all had a production facility (maybe even the same) in Görlitz Germany.
Plate size is about 30x20 cm.
The threads on the Focus Rack & Pinion are skewed (angled).
The Height Adjustment has 2 wooden Beams.
