About

The Weenie is a wooden bodied, folding plate camera made by Thornton-Pickard from about 1908.[1] Older cameras have red bellows and a brilliant finder mounted centrally on top of the shutter body: later ones have the finder at one side. The finder rotates for horizontal or vertical orientation of the camera; a ground-glass screen can also be used. The front standard simply pulls forward on the rails to a focusing scale. It has front rise.
