Chronology of cameras Astre 

The name of this model is highly uncertain. The layout of the catalog may suggest that it's a new version of the preceding "Modern" camera, but the cameras are very different, so there's a strong doubt.

This 1914 model is a camera with a curtain shutter, allowing for a "variety of exposure fractions."

It is covered in mahogany.
It is available in three sizes: 9 x 12 (No. 547), 11 x 15 (No. 549), and 13 x 18 (No. 548).
