Otto Spitzer German Field Camera
1890 estimated and attributed to Spitzer. The round tag in the front contains the letters "ESPI". Based on this naming convention used by Otto Spitzer for other cameras, I am attributing this to be an early version of this German maker. This camera is similar to the E & HT Anthony cameras that featured a revolving back and bellows to obtain a reversible back, introduced in the 1890s, with the front stationary. Any info on this maker and model would be appreciated.
