20th Century Cameras

Somebody had asked, "How many cameras do you need?"; so I gathered some of the 20th Century ones I have in the house: Canon T70, Argus ArgoFlex, Kodak Trimprint 940 (an "instant" camera, a la Polaroid), Brownie Hawkeye, Kodak Junior Series III, Kodak Instamatic 20, Kodak DC25 Digital (my 1st digital camera), and Kodak Instamatic 44
wow this is an amazing collection...this is a treasure

Great collection Harry. Unfortunately, I wasn't as diligent as you. Most of my cameras were used until they broke and then were either sold at garage sales, or just thrown out. I even had a Polaroid SX-70 at one point in my life. I can't remember what happened to that one.

Wow Harry, what a great collection. I love the coloring of this photo - such a warm retro feel with the doilie on the sofa :)
