Chronology of cameras Bilora

Bilora produced many different box cameras, sometimes challenging to identify. For this one, the name is written on it; this box is called "box." It is covered in leatherette-like metal. The metal parts are painted black.

On the right side, a first slider allows you to choose between the two apertures, 16 and 11. A second slider marked "M" and "Z" lets you choose between instantaneous and time exposure.

This box was manufactured before the war and from 1949 onwards, with nothing to distinguish between these two periods.
