Tim, some of this material is at archive.org. I am sure you
know about it but many do not. Also has old radio programs.
There is another site, <https://www.butkus.org/>
That has lots of old camera instruction books but also a lot
of other stuff.
I have never had any experience with the K-17 or other
aerial cameras. I have rebuilt some shutters, one had the pins
that hold the diaphragm blades come off. I think I used super
glue on that.
I will check out hath trust. I think I have explored Tim's
site, which is a treasure of stuff.

One blade is either loose, or missing, so I was looking for details or a diagram before I go in to fix it.
I ran across a little gem of a government publication. It includes instructions, and a list of tools to use, if you need to destroy your darkroom.
Enjoy:

The Hathi trust is where a lot of the copyright free material scanned by the Google Books project ends up.

All -
I had been meaning to do this and just found time. I found another source for the document above that permitted me to download and preserve it on my photoarchive site:
