Rare antique Vive Camera No. 4, manufactured by the Vive Camera Company of Chicago in the late 1890s. This large format box-style camera was designed for 4×5 glass plate photography and features its original pull-out focusing hood with cloth sleeve, ground glass screen, and leatherette exterior.
A remarkable survivor from the 19th century, this Vive No. 4 is a highly collectible piece of photographic history. Perfect for serious camera collectors, antique display, or museums preserving early American photography equipment. Displays wear consistent with age: scuffs, edge wear, leather handle deterioration, and fraying to the focusing hood. Please review pictures for details. Does not work.
