Alfred Brückner was a camera maker in Rabenau, a few miles outside Dresden, from about 1900 to 1955.[1] The company made several wooden field cameras, the majority being of tailboard design. McKeown lists models named Gloria, Paris, Union and Schüler-Apparat (Student Camera). A maker's plate showing a flag with the word 'Solid' appears on most or all Brückner cameras; this is the company's trademark, rather than a model name.[1] Most of the cameras have sliding rise and/or horizontal shift on the front board.
