    Description

    Wood lens board, just over 5 inches square, and painted black (original) . Undrilled. I used it on my Burke and James 5x7 wooden field camera to protect the bellows from dirt and dust when carrying the camera around outside. It was easier than lugging the camera around with a 1 or 2 pound lens mounted... The front is flat and the back has a lip all the way around. Width of the cutaway area of the lip is 5mm, and the height of the cutaway is about 2.5mm. The elevated square on the back measures about 82mm. No bevel on any edge.
    Fits
    the 5x7 models of the old B&J wooden field camera. I do not know if it fits the 4x5 and 8x10 versions. As the photo shows, it is 5 and 1/8" square. So, measure. 5 1/8 inch square, with cutaway area on the rear cut in 5mm, and the height of the cutaway about 2.5mm. The elevated square on the back measures about 82mm. No bevel on any edge.
    The board can of course be drilled with a hole of any size desired.
