I was given this camera years ago.

Here’s what I know:
-I have a Graphic Graflex camera serial number 514675.
-The lens is Graphex Graflex Century Graphic Optar 4.5 No. 889540 101 mm.
-There’s a Kalart Synchronized Range Finder on the side. Focuspot Made in U.S.A. Pats. #2337463, 2338714, 2397280.
-There’s a Graflex “23” Graphic film compartment on the back.
-What is it worth? It’s dusty but seems to be in good condition.

Sounds to me like you have a Century Graphic!

Apologies for the late reply.

S/n 514675 is in a block of Century Graphic serial numbers issued 1/17/1951. The next block of Century Graphic serial numbers was issued 2/12/1951.

OP, your camera is a Century and was made in 1951.
