I remember seeing a photo of the camera in one of Quentins' newspapers,
I think he was holding the camera.

I think you'll find it looks very much like the Siamesed Yashica A
camera project on my web site.  I made that project from looking at the
King Inn photo. It's at

Scroll down the page to find the camera project.

It isn't too hard to make your own King Inn style medium format rig.
