The actual difference between a Speed Graphic and a Model FP. Is the lensboard slide that says "FP". For a while Graflex expimented with different names- The Model 1000 for a Crown with a Rodenstock 1/1000 shutter and The Model FP, with a normal shutter and a Focal Plane shutter in the back.
I've been intouch with him and between myself and Ed Reidel we figured out that his camera is a very late version, his being made in 1966 and most others were made in 60-62 era.
