While I say I can't resist a 6x9 folder, I see that indeed I am able to: these 12 over 5 years average to one each 5 months. Now I have to either stop or get a wider table Wink

Right to left:
Moskva-2 (1950)
Agfa Record II Apotar (1954-57)
Kodak Monitor Six-20 Special (1941)
Voigtlander Bessa I Vaskar (1950s)
Voigtlander Bessa Skopar (1937)
Voigtlander Rollfilmkamera Skopar (1933)
HAPO 10 (Balda) Cassar (1936)
No.1 Pocket Kodak Series II Anastigmat (1922-31)
Goerz Rollfilm Tenax Dogmar (1922-24)
1 Autographic Kodak Special Model A Anastigmat (1915-1920)
No.1 Pocket Kodak Camera (1927-1931) (this is the one I haven't yet used...)

I love 'em all... The best lenses: Goerz! the Cassar in the Hapo! The Monitor Special! Vaskar (this folder also converts to a 6x4.5)! Moskva!

Yes:
Wollensak Optimo No.1 shutter with speeds to 1/300
Kodak Anastigmat F 6.3 110mm lens

The bellows leaked, but not too badly, I put a coat on it but haven't yet gone to recheck & add a second coat where there may still be some leaks.

Alternative, hire my cat Ermione for a week, she will take care of resizing your collection by dropping some from the table Rolling Eyes Laughing
Nice collections, 6x9 are sexy, I have 3 but none in working condition except maybe for one, I have to develop a test roll of it.
