with leather cae and two rolls
of film, only S6.75-. 1t looked
good to the Glasgow man, the
camera was one made by a ma
tiona!ly known firm and so he
made the buy.
What with haying, helping
chaperone the woOlies, market

didn't ue up the film that
came with the camera until a
few weeks ago. When he went
to get more, he was informed
there was none and that the
company quit making that par
ticular size several years ago.
He still has his beautiful ap-
paratus, minus film, and he's
wondering what to do with ii.
