NOTES:
  "The rollfilm holder was pivoted at the top to the back of the camera
  body, allowing it to be swung up permitting a ground glass screen to
  be fitted for accurate focusing. A dark slide covered the film while
  the holder was out of position. It could be detached completely by
  withdrawing the pivot pins, and the camera used with plates. The first
  shipment of about 70 cameras in June 1904 were recalled to be
  remodelled. New model released January 1905, from serial number 101."
