The formats
I changed the page title because the original Pearl takes larger than 6×9 exposures.
In McKeown I have the following models:
- Pearl II, III and IV (1909): 8×10.5 format on 118 film or plates
- Pearl (1911) for 8×13.7(?) format on 118 film or 8×10.5 plates
- Pearl No.2 (1923-1931) for 6×9 on 120 film, wooden then all metal
- Pearl (1933) for 6×9 on 120 film, metal

- That's a good change of names. Incidentally, I came back here because I realized that some of what I wrote last night was wrong. I have a better source. -- Hoary 19:11, 2 July 2006 (EDT)
Konishi, Rokuoh-sha, Konishiroku
I notice that you're saying "by Konishi and Konishiroku". I don't have a clear idea of the relationship between the names Konishi, Konishiroku and Rokuoh-sha, does the source you mention explain this?
--Rebollo fr 14:02, 2 July 2006 (EDT)
- I don't have a clear idea either, and the source I mention doesn't explain it well. I have seen a good explanation; I just have to remember where it was. -- Hoary 19:11, 2 July 2006 (EDT)
The Pearl name
At first I thought that the Pearl name was copied from the Perle folders by Welta, that apparently sold quite well in Japan, and whose body was copied by Konishiroku, but the Welta Perle was introduced in 1930. --Rebollo fr 06:38, 3 July 2006 (EDT)
JCII museum books
"The Japanese Historical Camera. 2nd ed. Tokyo: JCII Camera Museum, 2004. (In both English and Japanese.) This book, whose alternative title is 日本の歴史的カメラ, has no ISBN and perhaps is only sold at the museum."
I've just visited the page of the JCII museum shop. In addition to the book you mentioned, there are many exhibition catalogues, among them Konica-Minolta-ten that you also mention as a source. I would like to hear something about these catalogues: do they only describe the items displayed at the exhibition, and how many items are displayed? --Rebollo fr 04:34, 5 July 2006 (EDT)
