I just chanced across a website that covers US field cameras from 1879 to
1930. Since a lot of Alt-Photo folks end up with these earlier, big
negative cameras, I thought you might be interested.

The author(MathewBrady@msn.com????) has assembled photos and descriptions
of the the cameras and the makers.

He's also looking for information about several unidentified cameras. If
you've any knowlege of old field cameras you might check out the "unknown"
section.
