Who doesn't like Kyla Cole as a generic folder thumbnail, especially for "Cover Flow" applications, right?
Cropped and popped the colour, somewhat.

Whenever I draw in my sketchbook you can also find lips. I love to draw lips too and when I saw this folder by Lisa Frank at Wal-Mart I HAD to get it.
This is a Kinax Junior, a 6x9 folder made in the 1950's by Etablissments Jousset, and is towards the lower end of the range, having only a Kior f6.3/100mm lens and a maximum speed of 1/150th.
Nontheless, it is solid well made camera nicely finished, with a simple flip-up viewfinder and a pleasantly smooth shutter

Having got interested in landscape and architectural photography, I wanted a relatively inexpensive, easily pocketable, 6x9 MF camera.
For the first step, I was lucky enough to get a F/6.8 65mm Schneider-Kreuznach Angulon for a relatively low price because its host Synchro-Compur shutter had had the shutter elements stripped out; only the iris remained.
This was not a serious problem, as I have a Size 00 VARIO shutter that was designed for the Kershaw 630 (unused old spare stock of these - as well as those of the 450 - have turned up on ebay-uk). The VARIO speeds B 25 75 200 were sufficient for the range I was likely to need hand-held in daylight. The positions of the aperture markings were amended to suit the different focal length (65mm, instead of the 80mm of the Kershaw).
After some research on ebay, I got a 6x9 folder with rail pull-out lens standard.
A nice refinement on this body was that it had rack focussing, and the distance scale was under the focussing lever (rather than under a pointer at the position of the lens standard), so that this could be reused directly, with superimposed new markings, with the shorter focal length lens.
(The camera was by Voigtlander - I couldn't find a model name on it, but it looks like one of the INOS models - with an f6.3 Voigtar lens in an Embezet shutter.)
(I also had a late model Ensign Carbine which would also have been a possible basis for the modification, but as it weighs ~200gm (nearly 1/2 lb) more than the Voigtlander, it is more of a strain on the pocket to carry around, and I don't need the movements offered by its lens standard. However, as it turned out, its red-window cover would have been nice to have.).
(The original shutter/lens assembly and its retaining ring - nominally 32.5mm diameter thread - were stored away so that the camera would be restorable to original condition.)
By a stroke of good fortune, the dimensions of the shutter retaining ring interface with the bellows front plate (hole diameter 34.5mm) were compatible with that of a modern Size_00/Size_0 adaptor kit (available on ebay). So no metal-bashing was required, and the modification was cleanly reversible.
Coaxial location, of the shutter assembly in the lens standard, was ensured by a plastic plumber's washer, trimmed to 25mm internal diameter , 32.5mm external diameter. This 1.5mm thick washer was augmented with 0.4mm shim made from card.
(The adaptor kit also supplied a disc with a 25mm hole designed to be placed between the Size 00 shutter and the lens standard, but at 1mm thick, it left only a short length of thread for the retaining ring. Fortunately it was found to be not necessary to use this disc.)
Whenever I draw in my sketchbook you can always find an eye. I love to draw eyes and when I saw this folder by Lisa Frank at Wal-Mart I HAD to get it. It looks so cool!
Courtesy of Scott F. Davis. True vintage Pee Chee folder art. Freakin' classic; one of the best and most original customizing I've ever seen for that basketball player, whom he transformed into Peter Criss, complete with a monster drumset! Lookit those black dot heads! Classic. And I can't stop laughing at those skiers on the bottom. What's up with that "laser vision?" And lookit that big honkin' laser cannon firing off into space. LoL. Rock on.
Organizing all my documents for life, school, and work in a large box folder. Soon I will have to expand and use several box folders.
Again a short story. In 1954, Jan married Els, and the rest is history. My wife is the 4th child of this marriage. Jan had a 6x9 folder from a French company called Royer to document his honeymoon. I have that camera now, but the shutter needs to be repaired. In the meantime, I acquired another Royer 6x9 cam, this time without a self timer but with an Angenieux lens, a triplet. I'm told that Angenieux makes special lenses, but I'll have to see since I've shot only 2 or 3 film with this one. I've printed one negative, with very good result (i'll post it soon). This shot is from a roll with a light leak. I have to figure out if it was the camera or my doing.

With the love for journaling comes hoarding. Hoarding anything that can fit in an art journal. That means hoarding all sorts of ephemera and paper clippings. I found this tutorial on Pinterest: papiervalise.typepad.com/scissor_variations/2009/02/febru... And thought this accordion folder would be perfect for collecting my paper stash in, so I made this bunch of folders today, while watching Spiderman Homecoming 😁
