Posted: Sat Sep 26, 2009 3:42 am Post subject: Pictures taken by Graflex cameras |
|
|
I am donating my collection of Graflex cameras to the ARMitchell Museum in Trinidad, Colorado. To my knowledge this will be the only make specific display for Graflex. As part of the display I have been asked to set up te display. I have a collection of over 40 camras for this.
I need help in coming up with photographs which most likely were taken wih Graflex. I would appreciate any help with photographs during any part of Graflex histoy.
Thanks, Mike |

Interesting project. Are you including all models of cameras made by Graflex? I lived in Colorado for 40 years or so and find it interesting that this display would be in Trinidad. Not the location I would associate with Graflex history. Would recent photos be of help? If so, I could send a print or two. Best of luck with your project, which I hope to see next time I venture south. _________________ Glenn

Glenn Would appreciate pictures. Trinidad is a bit obscure but they were willing to host it and have the room. They have set a side one of their room just for photograhy. They have a very extensive photographic collection. If you want you can send th prints to me but I will have the director of the Mitch write a thank you which yo can use however.
Again thanks.

Mike, let me get in the darkroom and print a couple for you. May take a little time but you'll get them. I think what you're doing is really great. I'll send samples from 2X3 and 4X5 Speed Graphics. _________________ Glenn

I am sad to have to announce that this display has been taken down. The room it was in has been turned into storage partially due to a lack of volunteers to keep things going. Consequently, I have removed all the cameras as of Aug. 2015. MM |
