Chronology of cameras Sanderson
Frederich H. Sanderson was born in Cambridge in 1856. He began developing an interest in photography, particularly architectural photography, around 1880. He found contemporary photographic equipment challenging to use and lacking in the necessary adjustments.
In January 1895, he patented a tilting front standard system that would become a feature on all Sanderson cameras produced after that date. This system involved the use of four supports for the front standard, allowing for a tilting movement to eliminate optical distortions.
He entrusted the production of his cameras to the Holmes Brothers company and the marketing to the Houghton company.
In 1899, he modified his system by adding locks that allowed for both tilting of the front standard and an easy return to the neutral position.
All Sanderson cameras bear a progressive serial number, regardless of the model, which facilitates dating. The serial numbers range from 100 to 27,000 (with some uncertainty). Production continued until 1939, although the majority of it was completed before the outbreak of World War I.
The Junior series consists of camera in a modest format, produced to be the lightest and least expensive in the Sanderson range.
They are leather-clad mahogany cameras, with the brass parts varnished. They offer most of the common movements found in the brand's cameras, such as tilts and shifts with a wide range, triple extension, etc.
The Junior models come in various versions (1, 1t, 1K, 1L, etc.), all equipped with Ensign Sector shutters. Only the chosen lens determines a model name.
