IDK what this is called. It's equipment from a dismantled sugar mill that is displayed at LSU's Rural Life Museum. I wasn't going to post it, but I didn't get out much today. Tonight Alabama plays at LSU, a huge football rivalry and an ESPN GameDay. People began tailgating early in the day, traffic was awful and I stayed home.
Another shot with a vintage 50 mm lens. Old film cameras and lenses have gotten trendy. Maria borrowed my Yashica film point-and-shoot that I bought years ago at a thrift store for $5-10. I looked up the current value. People are asking $450!
@grammyn My son and daughter-in-law are at the game in the rain. More comfortable to watch it on TV!
I did think of trying to sell the little camera, but I think my granddaughter likes it.
Very interesting capture and machine. Very old but very important to preserve and keep for prosperity. If I hadn't given away my old, actually not so old, cameras I would have tried to sell them there at the way the price is rising.
@olivetreeann I think it's neat she is using it, too. She has a Canon DSLR but is trying out two compact cameras, one film and the other digital, because they are lighter to travel with.

You might could make yourself some money with those cameras

It’s totally more valuable to keep it for your granddaughter.
