fishing’ for fotos

Toronto. Okay, not all of you collect photos and only a few of you who do can pay a business like PhotoCentral for them. At left is just small example of the photographs they offer.

In this case, it is a c1915 Bromoil transfer print of a fisherman at Lac de Lantua in France. Originally priced at $400 US, it is being offered now at the modest sum of $280 US.

I was alerted about PhotoCentral by a brief note from George Dunbar in which he noted some of Mike Robinson‘s work is advertised on the site. If you aren’t familiar with the name, Dr Robinson at one time was president of this society and later held the same post at the Daguerreian Society. Mike is one of a handful of photographers world-wide who are a modern day daguerreotypists.

Mike also does portrait sittings for which a few PHSC members sat for him when he was president of the PHSC.
