I'm poking around the internet for info. So far I think pre ww2

Zeiss Ikon folder, 120 film 6x9. ( I know it marked zeiss ikon). I

could not find an exact match. Have you opened the back to find

any printing or a takeup spool. I assume of course you checked

carefully for film. If I find more info I will post it.

Matt: He didn't look at what he selling. He just put it up for sale

without looking. I wasn't trying to defend him, just trying to

understand his action.

Many great great photos on the contest link. Much talent . Very

impressive.

Ah Gene, don't get me started! I v'e been trying to behave, but its

not easy.

Well he probubly is not a camera dealer, but an auctioner who

came accros this camera and box etc. as a set, and just didn't

know.

Alan, all I can say is you have a nice set of cameras. Have you

used them all? If so, which is your favorite or most used. I have

several medium format cameras, but for on the go casual use

my old Yashicamat 124 sees the most action. Although I have

been having fun lately with a Minolta Highmatic 7S I cleaned up

and replaced light seals in.

Nice work with such a simple camera! Your'e right, things sure

are going away. Drove through areas I knew 30 years ago where

farmland and woods once existed and now many many new

large houses.

Nice set of cameras! Are they what you could call "art deco" ? I

don't know why but when I look at the red one all I can think of is

a 1962 Ford Falcon.(black with red interior).

I think, many people here on the classic site have photos worthy

of photo of the week. The regulars who post photos here work

hard at it. Most are done with old cameras of all types and

limitations.Many are shot with old out dated film and developed

and printed by hand. I do think that there are regular posters here

who should be recognized by Photonet for their contribution to

the rest of us.

I think they should take a hard look at some of Dean Williams

photos. And Gene should have one of those globe icons next to

his name. Hey! I sent in my dues and I don't have a gift box in

hand icon. Please don't take me too seriously, god knows I don't.

.They were waiting too long. Lighting is too flat. Take them

outside have fun and shoot away.

Can't quite tell. My Rollei, yashicamat 124, Minolta Rangefinder.

All so damn close.

Dean: I like your style. Nice lighting and composition.

Outstanding work. You have an excellent eye.

Micah: Great pic of your dog. Last year our 15 year old Baset

Hound past away. Now I'm stuck with our goofy black lab to go

out on photo safari sunday with. She is not that interested in the

photo aspect of the trip, just the free dog treat the girl at dunken

donuts gives her.

Gene: The old ice mill in Granby I believe is on of Carver Street. I

will check the street this weekend. If you have a copy of the

Granby 1976 Bi-centenial book there is a photo of it in there

when it was a complete building. It is near the belchertown line I

think. If you left belchertown following Rockrimon road It should

be on the right. I will confirm.

Thats it. I am heading their this weekend! I drive by it during work

hours all the time. As a side note do you know where the old Ice

house or mill is or whats left of it in Granby? I re-discovered it

this past sunday and am going back before it is all gone.

I recognize the old state hospital. You might also like to go to the

one in Northampton (to photograph) before it is re developed.

Parts of that old state hospital are being torn down. Big place.
