late last fall, I was looking for old " junker cameras" for a small display. One of our hoggers had a box of stuff and here it is, as a nice beginning.
Nice start to a great collection. I have a collection displayed of all the cameras I've owned and used over my 50 years of taking pictures. Each camera brings back memories. Give us an update now and then on how your collection is coming. Good luck.
There are so many great old cameras out there for prices one could have only dreamt of when the units were in their prime. Have fun with your collection.
I have two vintage light meters if you are interested. Both have boxes and manuals and one has the "Guarantee" card filled out by the seller with the serial number of the unit. One is a Walz Cornet-B (this one has the guarantee card) and the other is a Kalimar Model A-1. If you are interested I will take pics. The Kalimar is like new and the Cornet shows some wear on the leather cover but the meter looks like new.
Well the boxes need a little tlc but they are intact they are not damaged at all. I was going to put them on ebay for $35 each. I wanted to keep them for the same reason that you want them but being on SS I need the money. They are nice.
