Summary: Down Memory Lane - A photographic review of rare cameras
Review: A small but impressive volume reveals through superb photographs the timeless beauty of a wide variety of cameras. The reader/viewer will find remarkable photographic machines from the wooden shutters of a stereoscopic slide camera, a binocular camera with a guillotine shutter on to a 1950 spy camera, a working Zippo lighter with a camera built-in. Each full color photograph is accompanied by informative captions in both Italian and English. A short history of camera development is found at the back of the book. This beautifully illustrated book should be an inspiration to anyone interested in the field of photography.
