Re: Personal collections page

I believe it's sorted alphabetically by manufacturer by default, but you can click the links at the top of the collection to sort by manufacturer or model if you want. When I go to your collection, by the way, it's already sorted alphabetically by manufacturer. Is that what you mean by a-z?

Camera Collections page

I love to look at other people's collections. I know there is a list of collections on this page: http://collectiblend.com/Cameras/mcollectors.php It seems to me that the collections are listed in order of creation date. Would it be possible to have different sorting options? I'm thinking it would b...

Re: Baby brownie special

I hate to disappoint you, but the Baby Brownie Special is absolutely not rare by any stretch of the imagination. Simply checking eBay for recently sold examples of this camera will tell you the real story, which is that they commonly sell for $10 or less. I'd say your best bet would be to keep it on...

Re: Laurie Import: Dick Tracy

Okay, now I see what has happened. There certainly is a Laurie Import, and they did make a Dick Tracy camera, but the one pictured is a Seymore camera.

The Laurie camera looks like this:

Re: Bell & Howell: Filmo 75 (Field Model)

That's an interesting list - thanks for the link!
Apparently based on the "Ariel Cinematographica Register". Unfortunately the complete set costs $850... :(

Re: Bell & Howell: Filmo 75 (Field Model)

Interesting. I noticed a couple of those examples had different winding keys, yet they're all called "A4". I wonder if the color has something to do with it. They did come in three colors...

Bell & Howell: Filmo 75 (Field Model)

The camera pictured (my camera) under "Field Model" is not a field model. The field model actually says "Filmo Field Model" (without "75") on the nameplate. Mine say "Filmo Model №75". I'm also confused about all the different Filmo 75 models listed on the B&a...

Laurie Import: Dick Tracy

Just curious - never heard of Laurie Import. As far as I know, all three variations of the Dick Tracy camera (of this type) were made by Seymore/Seymour. Is this not so? :?:
