The Kodak Master View was a collapsible metal box, not unlike a Linhof
Technika. As you open the "box" the top portion (or lid) becomes the flatbed
extension for the bellows and the bottom is the ground glass. I had one (wish
I still did) that was a tan color and was pretty nice, though not as rigid or
stable as my Technika...though it weighed very little. It easily fit in a
backpack or shoulder carried case.
