I think so, that's what it looks like.

I've read about this beast somewhere, possibly in A Lens Collector's Vade Mecum. Its good to see it and to see that it isn't exactly like the more common US-made Big Berthas.

I wonder which SLR is built into it. Channing & Dunn don't mention a DeVere SLR.

For an account of Berthas, including my failed Baby Bertha, see http://www.galerie-photo.com/baby-bertha-6x9-en.html
