Littlejohn process camera at Maybush, this is behind the lens and shows several different screens that can be moved in front of the lens, one is a ground glass screen for focusing and one has a vacuum system to hold the film in place.
This part of the camera is in a separate room from the lens/copyboard etc, the back side presumably had to be a darkroom.
