The Graflarger consisted of a cold light head and
negative carrier adaptor to fit the Graflok back. Graflarger
adaptors were made for 4x5, 3-1/4 x 4-1/4, and 2-1/4 x 3-1/4
backs but I've never seen any of the smaller ones for sale.
The lamp was made by Aristo and replacement lamps are still
available. The Graflarger was usually used with a vertical
stand also sold by Graflex as a copy stand. The camera's
lens will work OK for enlarging but one could mount an
enlarging lens on a spare lensboard.
There is a little information on these available on the
Graflex Org web site at http://www.graflex.org
