Only I dust the cameras and lenses. My spouse does not need to be the caretaker of my addiction! Besides, it gives me the opportunity to "visit" them often. That's the same logic behind hand-watering my outdoor plants instead of using a sprinkler system.

That collection is absolutely amazing. It is like stepping back into the past and understanding how cameras evolved.
I believe my wife would kill be if I left behind all those cameras after I died. LOL

When I told my wife about this she wasn’t laughing. She was in the kitchen cutting onions. I’m scared because she wasn’t crying. There’s a cold chill up my back too. I better get outta Dodge!

When I started high school in Brooklyn New York I had dog sat my aunt’s Saint Bernard, “Bagels.”
He was very lovable and a great to walk and brush. When my aunt returned, she gave me a $100 bill.
I was 18 in 1976 and that was the most money I had ever seen. I went to Olden Cameras on E33rd Street in NYC. I purchased a Russian Zenit-E film camera. It had the Olympic symbol on it. It weighed as much as a brick. I loved it.
Happy Shooting!
