In aged but complete condition. May have been used at Mitchell Company or at a camera department at the studio. I have used Mitchell Rack Over Cameras for over 15 years and this device was used to confirm alignment of the brass stops on the L plate.
1 - THE CAMERA BOX WAS RACKED OFF
2 - THIS DEVICE WAS RACKED ON
3 - THE GROUND GLASS SIGHTING ELEMENTS WERE USED TO Align the rack over tool and the ground glass cross hair target through the taking aperture of the L plate. After rectification alignment was done the brass gibs or stops were tapped or moved into place on the L plate so that when reintroducing the camera box the camera would rack over properly.
