Marc (and others),
Thank you for your kind words (snif)
My lens board popped off of my Revere more then twenty years
ago, when a truck drove over my camera, leaving only my
lensboard intact. Since then I have only seen lens boards on
offer (sales, flea markets and even Edmund Scientific)
I want my Revere back in working order ! I love it !
And I don't want to pay the price for a complete camera.
How come that you only find lens boards ?
Where have all the bodies gone ?
