Two Vintage Cameras

These two cameras are both older than I am (which is pretty old).

The first is a SIX-20 Kodak camera with a focusing doublet lens. I believe it is from the 1930s and the first of a number of models in this series
It appears to work well and has the original manual! It appears to be in excellent condition with only two small nicks on the bottom panel. I don't see any pinholes in the bellows. I found two on eBay asking $150 not quite as nice and several for a lot less, but I don't see any serious bidding either.

The second is a very clean looking Graflex Graphic35, but I don't have a manual and can't figure out how to make it work.

$80 for the two of them and I will pay shipping.

Thanks for looking.

Mike Butkus at Butkus.org has a large collection of downloadable Graflex user manuals, incl. the Graphlex Graphic 35. Mike created and maintains the collection which includes many other camera makes and models as well as a hobby. He suggests a very modest contribution in return for each download. A neat guy and an astounding resource.

Yes to this. You can find a number of vintage manuals in PDF format. Graphic mad a serious attempt at the postwar consumer 35mm rangefinder with this model. It's a pretty neat little camera. I'd be interested at the price, but already have one of each in my collection.
