There's a Polizei-Rolleicord on the big auction site if anyone is interested,
item number 230348879297.
The german police bought around 500 Rolleicord Ia cameras in 1939, and wanted
them with 3,5 Triotar instead of the 4,5. Franke & Heidecke had to use the same
sized shutter as for the Rolleicord II, and since the company name was on the
shutter cover on the then current Rolleicords, they had to engrave it below the
name plate instead of having new shutter covers made for this camera.
The viewfinder is broken, maybe because of heavy use. My own Polizei-Rolleicord
is in bad shape too.
I don't know the seller.
