Brrr! – Temperature test of Speed Graphic by Graflex.
Toronto. Ken Metcalf, down in North Carolina, sent word that the Graflex Journal issue 3-22 is now out. This revised version is less than 1/4 the size of the previous file. If your internet connection is fast, here is the 20meg version of the file (doesn’t pixelate the images as quickly).
Ken is editor of that large camera journal and is seeking any Graphic/Graflex articles for future issues. Articles by some of our members have appeared in earlier journals. Both Ken and our journal editor, the late Bob Lansdale, kept in touch over the years sharing stories in their respective journals.
The image for this post is the masthead photo from GJ3-22 and shows a Speed Graphic camera and photographer emerging from a freezer.
The title of this post is a riff on the song by Frank Loesser in the early 1940s, “Baby it’s Cold Outside” as sung by Dean Martin and chorus.
