FD 13x18 Camera

Hi to you all,

A question about my 13x18 FD camera I have.
I didnŽt succeed in finding out where or when this camera was made.
Perhaps you can help me.
I know from the wiki that this camera was made during thirty or forty years. IŽll try to describe the camera.
It is an all wooden camera, no plastic parts.Perhaps that could be a clue.All metal parts are chromed. THe bellows is black. Perhaps the lens, an I 51 f 4,5- 21cm no. 592468, could perhaps indicate the year 1959. Although that is a wild guess.
There is no passport, nor any engraving on the camera that states place and year.

Perhaps someone knows the answers.
Thanks a lot.
Henk

Hi Henk
Lens I 51 f 4,5- 21cm no. 592468 made in 1959.
camera made before 65 year too, because all parts are chromed.
So I think lens and camera made in 1959
All the best
Alex
