Me and my Speed Graphic camera 1951


I was one happy camper when I got my 4x5 Speed graphic. I used it from 1951 to 1957 when I finally sold it. It used film packs and sheet film holders. Now I think back at how clumsy that was. I did my own film & print processing back then using a portable darkroom with a Graph-Larger cold light pack on the back of the camera. I did get lots of nice pictures with that camera.
