The black box has gears on the bottom and an electrical connector on the side. If anyone is familiar with this, please let me know. I would like to know more about it, especially since it will be for sale soon. Thanks. skatz1153@gmail.comS.

I am fortunate to have 2 panoramic cameras built by Jim - one somewhat similar to this and another that used 120 film. He also gave me his handmade tools to reload the plastic Kodak Panoramic disposable cameras that sported beautiful 25mm lenses. His house was full of cameras that he built, including many prototypes that didn't quite work out. It was a real inspiration to visit and see him working in his workshop!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11352257339825872708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4296186803433131559.post-25371508159923502332011-09-30T23:55:55.381-04:002011-09-30T23:55:55.381-04:00Thanks Thomas for sharing your memories.Thanks Thomas for sharing your memories.Somak Rayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13710866760467378037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4296186803433131559.post-53911887691478518012011-09-29T13:11:12.982-04:002011-09-29T13:11:12.982-04:00During the '60's and '70's I worke...During the '60's and '70's I worked for Calandra Photo in Omaha where Jim Lipari was Vice-President. We got to know him because he would come to watch the film machines run, he also built equipment for the plant. Years later I would see him at camera shows. At one of these shows he was showing a 3-d panorama camera and viewer that he built.Jim Lipari was one of the nicest, friendliest people I have ever had the pleasure to meet.Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12161631511044909713noreply@blogger.com
