The antique and vintage cameras in this collection will be recognised by many who have used them over the years for holiday and family snaps. Ranging from early bellows and box cameras, to the ubiquitous Kodak ‘Brownie’ and more sophisticated 35mm single-lens reflex types, our collector’s passion began when he was 10 and has continued for nearly seven decades. A retired industrial journalist and editor, Tony’s love for photography became a useful skill when images were required to illustrate articles.
