Details

This most charming 'Verax' yellow filter with a gradual gradient could be clamped over lenses by means of a special holder. It was probably made around 1918 by the company 'Unger & Hoffmann' AG in Dresden. This company started in 1878 producing photo paper, projectors and plate cameras. The company first used the name 'Verax' in 1908 when it built the Verax Tropen camera, then the company continued under that name, building bellows cameras, magnifiers, lenses and producing conversion lenses and filters. In 1926 the company was acquired by Mimosa AG in Dresden.
