What it is
The Underwood Exhibition is an early large-format wooden plate camera, a class of equipment associated with the late 19th and early 20th century when mahogany-and-brass field cameras were standard professional tools.
Inspect the bellows for pinholes and corner splits, check that the wooden bed and standards are not warped or worm-damaged, and confirm the brass fittings, focusing rack and ground glass are intact. Plate holders and any original lens are frequently missing or mismatched, and replacements are scarce, so a complete outfit is worth materially more than a bare body.
