Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Ha ha -- sometimes if I didn't get the ball in the right place near enough the Sports Writer used to 'cheat' and cut out a ball and stick it on the print where HE wanted it then the print would go for letterpress block making and pic would come out in the paper looking 'Perfec' all BEFORE PhotoShop was invented !!

I no longer have that CAMERA but I do still have that old LENS. I scanned a darkroom print found in my files.
