This is not part of a Rolleicord.

I have a pre 1936 Voightlander Brilliant that contains a 75mm f4.5 Skopar in a 
Rim-Set Compur.
Therefore the lens is front-cell focus.
The lens certainly needs a clean & the shutter needs a serious looking at. It 
seems to fire only at a very fast speed irrespective of the movement of the 
speed ring.
I realise the camera is not worth much, only a portion of what a CLA might 
cost, never mind whatever issues a Rim-Set Compur might have after such a long 
time.

Has anyone any ideas of anyone in the UK before I remove the lens & send it to 
SK Grimes in the US?

BTW: As you may know my Brilliant was also made in Braunschweig.
