Small collection of various cameras and a Schatz clock that were my grandparents. I was never allowed to touch the clock when I was a kid, so now that I have inherited it I can tell my daughter not to touch it.
The cameras are all in very good condition, haven't messed with them much, mostly out of fear of breaking something. One even has the original box bottom. also not pictured is a 50's? Viewfinder with a bunch of discs from Lone Ranger to European Sightseeing. My 7 yr old LOVES them.

As a note, the camera at the lower right of the picture looks like an early 1900s Conley. The leather covering has what is referred to as a 'bear skin' finish. If you open the door (slide the small latch to the right), you will see a ground glass for viewing and composing. The backside of the door should be highly polished wood. The opposite side of the box will have a drop bed. This can be opened by pushing a hidden button located in front of the leather carrying strap. If the camera is in good condition, you will be greeted by a beautifully finished wood interior and a front that extends with a red leather bellows. Assuming you successfully open the camera, I suggesting posting pictures.
