Collectors usually prefer to acquire a pristine example of a particular camera model. That is not always the case.

You may not find just such a camera at our spring fair (<a href=\"https:\/\/phsc.ca\/camera\/fair-is-fair-my-friend\/\">Sunday, May 26, 2024<\/a>) but there will be ample goodies for your collection and\/or user gear (film, plate and digital). Come down and enjoy the day. After all, the parking is free, the admission cheap, and the food is delicious!<\/p>\n<p>Oh, yes. The camera restoration was featured in our journal issue 30-1 which is on the DVD given to all members of the PHSC. Not a member? See the PayPal buttons to the right.
