What it is

{"overview":"The Gaumont Block-Notes is an early 20th-century French folding strut camera produced by Gaumont of Paris, made in a compact, pocketable form for plate photography. Check that plate holders and any original accessories are present, since missing parts materially reduce the price a Block-Notes sells for.
