The old carriage house.
Just acquired another vintage camera, a Spartus Press Flash. This camera was introduced in 1939 and was the first camera to have a built in flash reflector. The camera is basically a box camera, no focus, no exposure setting except "Instant" or "Time" and shoots 8 big 6x9 negatives on a roll of 120 film. It was a joy to use and gave me 8 perfect negatives.
Film: Kodak Plus-X 120 exp. 3/2009
Xtol 1:1, 68 degrees, 7 min, 15 sec. 5/5
(I can't believe I used on of my last rolls of Plus-X on an untested camera but I love the results. I miss Plus-X)
Camera: 1939-ish Spartus Press Flash, Utility Mfg. Co. approx. 14.95 new.
