  • Richard Norton said:
    Jozef-Ernest van Roey (13 January 1874 – 6 August 1961) was a Belgian Cardinal of the Roman Catholic Church. He served as Archbishop of Mechelen from 1926 until his death, and was elevated to the cardinalate in 1927. He was significant figure in Catholic resistance to Nazism in Belgium. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jozef-Ernest_van_Roey
  • Art Siegel said:
    Date on photo, 12/16/26, correlates with his elevation to cardinal on 12/20/26: query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9500E3D7163DEE3AB...
  • Arden said:

    Looks like it meant to take a 360-degree photograph.... actually 8 photographs of 8 mirrors.
  • Tim Evanson said:
    The lenses are 6-inch wide angle "Xpres" lenses made by Ross (based in London, UK).
  • Kilted Cowboy said:
    this was actually the first iteration of Daleks for the 1914 stage play "Dr Who"
  • Art Siegel said:
    related to www.loc.gov/pictures/item/hec2013011206/resource/ I think this is the same camera, seen from the other side.

    The most similar thing I have found is in www.isprs.org/proceedings/XXXIV/5-W16/papers/PanoWS_Dresd... See fig 20 for an aerial panorama camera.
