: What type of lens has the little round things to set
: the shutter speed. Trying to find out what type of 4x5
: graflex this camera is. Rangefinder has distance scale
: on it
That's not quite enough to go on. It would be better if you went back to the home page and searched through the Graphic FAQ
If I had to guess, I'd say it was a pre-Anniversary Speed with a Kalart rangefinder (those really aren't distance scales) and a Carl Zeiss Tessar in a Dial Compur shutter. The hardware will be painted grey, the wire finder folds in front of the lens and is square with a rounded top. These were made from 1928-1939.
