R.B.Cycle Info - Follow-up

I have an "R.B.Cycle" camera, 8 x 10, with no lens.  The markings on the
bottom read either "98" or "86", depending.  The camera appears to be in
quite good shape, except that the leather is coming loose from the back
of the pressure plate. There is a distance to gear scale along the bed,
so I'm assuming that is is a convertible pan, similar to a Cirkut
outfit.  Any info?

Thanks to those who answered my first query.  I have more info to offer:

The camera is a 6.5 X 8.5.  My mistake.

There are two distance/gear scales on the right side of the bed; one for 24" and one for 12".

The full label on the front standard reads:

                            R.B.CYCLE GRAPHIC
                            FOLMER & SCHWING DIVISION
                            EASTMAN KODAK COMPANY
                            ROCHESTER, N.Y.

The back rotates.

The bellows are red.

TIA for any additional info that you might provide.

Scott
