The Instantograph cameras were made by J. Lancaster & Son of Birmingham from about 1886 to 1910 [1] in ¼-plate, ½-plate and 1/1-plate sizes. They were supplied with brass Lancaster lenses. A unique feature was Lancaster’s Patent hinged back; the focussing screen was swung out on extended hinges when fitting a plate holder.
