I have never seen a wooden box Richard before so I checked with some of my 
books and nothing with a wooden box was listed.  Some possibilites are
possible:  it is extremely rare or someone put the Richard mechanism into a 
wooden housing.  It's difficult to tell without close inspection.  

If you would like to send some photos to me, perhaps Andrew {Dalia's 
husband] and I can help figure it out.  I know a Richard camera authority 
and can forward the pix on to him if we get stumped.
