Hi,

I picked up this Speed Graflex at an estate sale today. How do you open it?

Thanks for your help.

Press down on the little dimple, on top, to the right of the range finder, in the center, toward the camera.

See it in the picture..

See http://graflex.org/speed-graphic/pacemaker-speed-graphic.html
for instructions about rolling the focusing rack when opening and closing.
