good.
I just mean I like it - I have a thing for old cams and this is a cool one. :)
//www.davidrichert.com/AGFA%20rebuild/agfa.htm This is a page on how to take apart and clean a very similar cam, it should work for yours as well.

| friend's dad willed it to him when he died... he let me borry it to find out more about it. He sat there for probably an hour messing with it and asking me questions, then he handed it to me and i had it all opened up and out of it's case in less than a minute. hehe! i pulled all the film out - it was all gray. |

i dropped my mamiya camera from sholder and no body was able to repair the lense (or probably did not try to repair it), then i opened the lense and fixed the problem myself.

| i sadi because i saw similar camera in a shop near by, i probably will go there in one or two days, that shop has some old lenses too, (though the probablity of finding the same is low) i will check if its the same i will let you know, if it is there i should not cost much. |

You didn't rewind it first!?!?!?
There are places that specialize in developing old film like this, if there were images on there, they can develop them, even if the film is really, really old.
