DescriptionThis photography display case takes on an overall rectangular form. The chassis of the case consists of three rectangular wooden panels on the sides and bottom, in addition to a rectangular, metal enclosure at the top. Similarly, the metal portion is continued in the front panel, creating a border around the perimeter, holding the front glass window panel in place. The bottom of the front-facing surface includes a horizontally spanning, orange-colored segment with "Film • Cameras" written on it in large, capital, reddish-orange lettering. The opening at the top most likely serves as the area to insert photographs into the display.
