I did get a reply this week from someone who said he has seen information on these Mortensen lights. I'm waiting to see if he comes up with a copy of an old ad he has somewhere.

Thanks for the suggestions. I've been shooting several nights a week for the last 8 years for things to put on eBay etc. Since I already enjoyed photography I took it as a challenge to see what I could learn. I'm cheap so I got along with home made lighting and things for quite a while before I upgraded last year. Maybe the subject itself is not glamorous enough for a book of it's own or a class but it might be interesting to see the response. Or maybe a group just for the subject to share experiences and ask questions. I know lots of people just use a smart phone for eBay and such but I can't take a good picture with one to save my soul and I don't plan on improving on that one.

maybe exploding lights is how he got some of those expressions in his photos

We've come a long way. Ever had the pleasure of posing for home movies with a bar light holding 4 500Watt floods? That'll warm you up

I've been looking for a "friendly" copy in ebook form just to look. I think that is looking like my best bet so far. It has your basic tilt-swivel. I wish it had a patent applied for date. I may have to spend some time searching patents to see if I can get lucky. Then again, I've seen patent applied for on items that never seem to have been applied for.

I've done a lot of probing about Mortensen, but I have never seen any reference to his 'branding' equipment. He did write a lot of books other than Monsters & Madonnas, however, and whatever one may think of his grotesques, he was a master of a certain kind of portraiture including lighting.

This came from an estate that had an odd collection of unique items

Ok....My "small" photo was not really so small. Resized and posted thumbnail. I guess that is the trick here. Thank you very much for your assistance! -

Yes, I've tried thumbnail and a small photo as well. I've posted to many discussion groups but this one seems to have it's own unique ways -
Hello, Is there a place to find discussions on things like Product Photography? Thinks like techniques for taking photos of products for posting to websites etc? While I consider some of that to be Macro it seems to me like that is just part of the equation. Thanks Buddy C

Ok... that works in this forum but I get the spam/inappropriate error in the Lighting forum. Forum membership required or something?? -

Same here. What's the trick to putting a photo in a post?
