elansprint72 Posted November 19, 2006 Share #2 Posted November 19, 2006 Great stuff! Nice to see some proper photographs and some proper cameras, love the vest-pocket cam in #2! I've just bought a miniature Speed Graphic, when I get it serviced I'm shopping for one of those hats to put my Press Card in! Have you got any more?

andybarton Posted November 19, 2006 Share #7 Posted November 19, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) Franklin This was taken at about 1:30 this afternoon in Manchester. The subject is just some fellow who wanders the streets papperazzi-ing passing Leica shooters with his SpeedGraphic. Goes by the name of Pete Taylor Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert_parker Posted November 19, 2006 Share #8 Posted November 19, 2006 I particularly like the second - my Dad had a large camera on rails not unlike the one in the photo, which took a very, very, small picture. Photos of people and how they live or work, from any time, will always have an interested audience. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stunsworth Posted November 19, 2006 Share #10 Posted November 19, 2006 I really like that first one. Ok, it's posed, but it captures an era superbly. Thanks for sharing these. If you have any more please post them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
billh Posted November 20, 2006 Share #11 Posted November 20, 2006 Those are great photos! My dad had a speed graphic, and I remember using it too. The contemporary photo is quite funny. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
