The Agfa PB 20 Viking is a nicely-finished, higher-spec version of Agfa Ansco's other 6x9 PB 20 folders. Notably, this one offers a body shutter release, "quality" metal finishes, and an f/6.3 or f/7.7 anastigmat lens. The rim-set shutter offers 1/25-1/100 sec. exposures, plus T and B. The camera were produced by Ansco in Binghamton, NY starting in about 1940; in 1943 the company dropped the "Agfa" part of its name.
The PB 20 designation for the film size is equivalent to 120 film (Kodak's designation).
