Rollei Rolleiflex 2.8 D (Modello K7D) Analogue camera

Exceptional and exceptionally rare medium-format TLR Rolleiflex 2.8 D (produced by Franke & Heidecke between 1955 and 1956), equipped with the legendary Carl Zeiss Planar 80mm f/2.8 lens (serial no. 1685434) and Heidosmat finder 1:2.8/80. Synchro-Compur shutter with speeds up to 1/500s and integrated EVS system. This specimen has a unique collectible and documentary value. On the side of the waist-level finder hood and on another side there is a precise original period hand-engraved inscription: "Professor Dr. Gerhard von Frankenberg, Hannover, Kaulbachstr. 4, Germany". Inside the original rigid leather case is also preserved the period-typewritten label bearing the same name and address: "Prof. Dr. von Frankenberg, 3 Hannover, Kaulbachstr. 4". Prof. Dr. Gerhard von Frankenberg (1892–1969) was a distinguished zoologist, author and German politician, former director of the Natural History Museum of Braunschweig.

Surviving imprisonment, he resided after the war at the address engraved on the machine.
