Chronology of cameras Zeiss Ikon
The Ideal is camera model initially designed by Huttig in 1908, it continued its career through the various mergers of manufacturers, within Ica in 1909 and then within Zeiss Ikon. Judging by the name given to the model in its catalogue, Photo-Plait struggled to manage the change, mixing the two brands names. Unless it is a marketing ploy to make the faithful of the Ica brand understand that despite its disappearance, not much has changed.
The Ideal models reference code is linked to the negatives formats:
