Since the earliest days of cameras and photography, the idea that
an event or a person could somehow be frozen in time and preserved
forever has fascinated people. This absorbing book features many of
the most famous and historically significant cameras ever produced
from the 1930s through the 1990s. Famous American brands such as
Imperial, Kodak, Spartus, Polaroid, and Argus are shown, as well as
early cameras from Beacon, Packard, and Falcon. Camera types
include rangefinder, viewfinder, and single lens reflex, plus
foldouts, instants, premiums, plastic art cameras, and even
disposables. Here too are many American made movie cameras from
Bell & Howell, Kodak, Revere, DeJur, Technicolor, and Keystone,
along with Japanese models from Yashica and Chinon and the popular
Swiss made Bolex. Though no longer being produced, many of these
wonderful older cameras are still available to collectors and are
surprisingly inexpensive. Valuable information on where to find
them, what to pay, and how to start or add to your own collection
is provided.
