The Billy Record is an interesting camera.  I have one but haven't used 
it in many years.  I had a bit of trouble with it since it does not have 
a coupled rangefinder so focus was hit or miss.

I had it and a couple other old folders in a sort of display on the 
mantle and the bellows all dried out and disintegrated.  Fortunately 
none were especially rare.  So be careful and keep the camera closed 
when not in use.  Someday I want to learn how to make bellows and will 
recondition some of those.
