I have a Graflex that looks similar. To focus the Graflex, you look through the one viewfinder, and find something vertical in the image (a pole, for example) and get it to line up vertically. There a horizontal line in the viewfinder.
That viewfinder doesn't actually show the true composition of the image though. That's a different viewfinder!
