INVENTORS, MANUFACTURERS AND PATENTEES OF Specialities in photographic apparatus, AND DEALERS IN EVERY DESCRIPTION OF IJhotographie Material.' and Apparatus, 87 & 88, NEWMAN STREET, (Four Doors from Oxford Street), Telegrams DEVELOPER, LONDON” ( / H-/J LONDON, W A 'N introducing this Twenty-Sixth Edition of our Catalogue to the Photographic world we are assured that it will meet with the same approval as has been extended to our previous editions since 1849, and that it will be found by any one interested in Photography to repay them for perusal. Since the issue of our last edition in 1888, the most note¬ worthy change in the manufacture of apparatus has been that caused by the growth of the use of the Hand Camera, which has so extended since our introduction, in 1885, of the system of work¬ ing at fixed focus, that Hand, or “ Fixed Focus” Apparatus, is now a recognized necessity in the Photographic world. We are pleased to be able to state that having given almost exclusive attention to the perfecting of apparatus for this system of working, we have been enabled to manufacture successively increasing sizes, until we are now making our “ Eclipse ” Ap¬ paratus for working plates 8£ x 6J, and for Continental use 24 x 18 centimetres. We have from time to time added to the original form of 1885, extra movements, as they were suggested to us until the “ Eclipse ” with the adjuncts of the present date is a complete apparatus for Hand Camera Work, as well as for Focussing and other purposes, in fact, we are enabled to state that out of the nine points mentioned recently by one of our writers on the subject, as essential to render a Hand Camera perfect, we already A 2 combine eight in ours ; and we feel sure that in the near future we shall make still further improvements to extend the usefulness of this kind of apparatus, and so lead to the adoption of this system of Photography in a wider field than has hitherto been thought possible. We still give special attention to all forms of Portable Apparatus, the simplifying of operations and reduction of bulk and weight being our first consideration, and we would draw the special attention of intending purchasers to our New Cameras for 1891, and feel sure that their quality and simplicity of design combined with portability and moderation in price will recom¬ mend them ; our long experience in designing apparatus convinces us the more simple the apparatus the greater the facility of successful manipulation. We beg to tender our sincere thanks for the largely increased support we have received during the past few years, and to assure our numerous patrons that we shall continue, as heretofore, to use ever}? endeavour to deserve the continuance of their favors. We much regret to have been compelled to somewhat delay the output of our specialities during the past two years, owing to the unprecedented demand and the inevitable hindrance caused by the building of our New Premises ; but we can only say that being now enabled to manufacture in increased quantities, we can promise that for the future the demand shall be better met.

SHEW’S LANTERN SLIDE “ECLIPSE” APPARATUS. S HIS apparatus is identical with our Eclipse” Cameras, now so well known and in use all over the world, (see special pamphlet and further particu¬ lars at pages 13, &c.), and we can confidently assert that more work is shewn at lantern demonstrations in all parts, done with the “Eclipse” than with any other apparatus on the market. Numerous medals have been awarded in open competition for Lantern Slides and for Enlargements, the greatest test for the quality and definition of the work of this Lens. The Lantern “Eclipse” being 3|in. square is the most compact form for carrying in the pocket, although in many cases the usual 4J x 3J is preferred even for lantern work, the larger plate giving greater facility for selection of subject in making the lantern slide, which is done at more leisure than s possible in so many cases in exposing the negative.

'pjMHIS Invention has for its object the means of enabling the operator to work eJM a plate of one or two sizes larger than that for which his Camera is fryS constructed, thus by employing the Adapter with ^-plate Camera it is as once converted into a i-i plate, or 9x7, a 1-1 plate into 10 x 8 or 12 x 10, and other sizes in proportion. Every modern Camera will take an Adapter that will work plates of the next two sizes larger. The Adapter is of the simplest form, fitting, as shown above, in the place of the Camera reversing frame, it is available for pictures horizontal or vertical. The weight is only about half that of a Camera of an equivalent size, it remains perfectly rigid and steady when fixed, and enables the Photographer by using the single Combination only of his Rectilinear or doublet lens (as well as with short focus lenses) to take pictures the next one or two sizes larger, at a very small outlay, with the extra advantage of being able to take away and dispense with the Adapter and use his Camera as usual when desirable, the Camera being in no way altered.

French) free on application. tjpfc lNCE the advent of the modern Dry plate, Photographic processes and apparatus have undergone an entire change, subjects which it were deemed impossible to re-produce by the aid of the Camera are now of every day accomplishment. There had long been felt the necessity of getting rid of the cumbersome impedimenta of the old collodion days, and for the past ten years we have given special attention to the invention and manufacture of many appliances of practical utility, the object of each being the simplifying of Photographic operations. With this object still in view we, in 1885, first introduced the then unknown system of photographing without preliminary focussing, in other words, working with a fixed focus lens, which resulted in the creation of the now universally known “Eclipse” Hand Apparatus (patent), so justly described as the parent of all Hand Cameras in this country. 14 J. F. SHEW & Co.’s Photographic Stores, The Lens.—A Rapid Rectilinear of the best quality, specially manufactured for working at fixed focus. It possesses great depth of definition, combined with remarkable brilliancy and crispness of image. No focussing is required, as all objects beyond a distance of 15 to 20 feet from the camera are always sharp. It is supplied with a revolving diaphragm-plate, with apertures Fj 10, F/ 15, F/ 20, E/40, these having been found most suitable for all purposes. Mounted between the combinations of the lens in front of the diaphragm- plate and revolving on the same axis, is the patent shutter, which is circular in shape; with it is supplied a simple means of regulating it, and an efficient release. Every lens is carefully tested and examined, the focus of each one being carefully determined by experiment previous to its being sent out from our manufactory. This lens is the outcome of long and varied experiments, resulting in the production of an instrument superior in its working for this purpose, to any similar lens since made, as fully proved by the fact that at every high-class lantern demonstration, at home and abroad, the work of “The Eclipse” is shewn, and admitted to be equal—and in many cases superior—to that of any other class of apparatus, speaking volumes for the high-class quality we claim for this lens. The Camera consists of the usual bellows body, with mahogany front and back, the front being held in position by two wings, which, when not in use, fold over it, forming a compact article, measuring only 6 x 4I x if. The double backs are of the best book form, with flexible folding shutters. The strictest, attention is paid to the quality and manufacture of these slides, in order to ensure their being perfectly light-tight, a most important point in slides which must be worked in the open light without covering, to avoid the disappoint¬ ment so often resulting from badly-fitting parts inseparable from cheap work. We are now making light film backs to contain cut films, six of which-, can easily be carried in the pocket, or for those who prefer the power of taking a large number of pictures without changing, we fit the Eastman Roll Holder, which, with the “ Eclipse ’’ Camera, forms a complete apparatus for taking 48 pictures, 4I, x 3J, easily carried in the pocket. In this apparatus we still claim to have produced the most compact and efficient hand-camera possible to design. This is proved by the fact that, in spite of the very numerous forms of hand or detective cameras introduced to the photographic world since ours of 1885, none have yet equalled it for compactness,, portability, simplicity of operation, and perfection of results. We have no hesitation in stating that it still eclipses any apparatus known in giving perfect pictures 4J x 3J (without the preliminary focussing which so often results in the loss of the subject most desired), with a camera which is instantly set up, which weighs only 12 ounces, which folds up to measure only 6 X 4! X 2J, and is easily carried in the pocket. We would call special attention to the great advantages this apparatus possesses of compactness and the extreme rapidity with which it can be brought into use; also to the fact that glass or film can be used for the production of negatives, without having to use adapters of any kind. The camera is taken from the pocket, and by a simple operation it is ex¬ tended, the shutter drawn, and the exposure made, the whole operation occupy¬ ing a few seconds and attracting no notice from passers-by. 87 & 88, Newman Street, Oxford Street, London, W. UNSOLICITED TESTIMONY TO THE EFFICIENCY OF SHEW S “ ECLIPSE ” HAND APPARATUS. It is the fact that out of the magnificent selection of Lantern Slides shown in com¬ petition at the Crystal Palace Exhibition, TWO out of the Six Medals were awarded for pictures taken with the “ Eclipse,” viz.:— Foreign Views (Class 2), by W. A. Greene, Esq. Figures in Motion (Class 7), by H. Little, Esq: The Swiss Scenery shown by Mr. Greene, proving without doubt that “The Eclipse ” is The Apparatus for Touring in Mountainous Countries; and ithe much-admired series of Sporting subjects, shown by Mr. Little, are con¬ clusive proof of the advantage of this little apparatus in following up and (with •out anylpreparation being requisite) obtaining these subjects instantly at the will of the operator. We append a few extracts from letters we are constantly receiving with reference to this apparatus:— July 26, 1887. I am very much pleased with your lens of a permanent focus, and think it a decided advance. Yours truly, HORACE DAY, M.D. 61, Eastcheap, E.C. I have got so fond of the “ Eclipse” that I have used my other cameras very little since I bought your “ Little Wonder.” Yours j ru ^’ ALKER 34, Primrose Terrace, Edinburgh. Gentlemen, —The camera arrived safely, and I am much pleased with it. I have already done some good work in the way of skating and curling scenes. Faithfully yours, R. HENSLEIGH WALTER. Charterhouse, Godalming. You will be glad to hear that though the day seemed unfavorable, I had two shots, both instantaneous; I got in each case a very clear sharp photo, with plenty of detail and density, speaking volumes for the excellent quality •of the lens. T. G. VYVYAN. 12 , COVERDALE, RICHMOND, SURREY. Gentlemen, —It may interest you to know that I made the enlargement, to which the Silver Medal has been awarded at the Birmingham Exhibition, from a negative which I took with one of your Eclipse Hand Cameras, the lens working at full aperture. . . . Five out of the six slides I sent up to the Crystal Palace Show were made from negatives taken with the J-plate Eclipse Camera I had from you. This makes the third medal I have taken £0,- work done with your very handy little camera, and seeing that in each case it has been in competition with the work of fixed cameras, the utility of a hand camera seems pretty well established. Yours truly V W. ASBURY GREENE. February 5th, 1891. The Camera which you sent me has proved most satisfactory, and of course it is auite superfluous to speak of the merits of the “ Eclipse ” which I also have. Yours faithfully, R. M. PHILPOTT. ?E have long since seen the uselessness of the additional bulk in portable Apparatus, necessitated by the very square proportions of our com¬ mercial sized plates, which in no way add to the merit or artistic effect of the picture, so many having passed through our hands that would otherwise have been artistic, being spoiled by having either too much fore- ground or too much sky. In order to meet the want of a plate or picture of more artistic or sym¬ metrical form, as well as to dispense with the additional and unnecessary weight and bulk produced in carrying camera and backs for the square forms of plate now in use, we are now making our “ Eclipse ” apparatus in a size which possesses the advantage of having the length of a 5X4 plate, and is no larger than a J-plate in the other dimensions, viz., 5 x 3J. This, it will readily be seen, is a much more pleasing size for Landscape as well as for figure work, and as we are making it, it will still have the advan¬ tage of being, as in the usual J-plate, easily carried in the pocket on tour. The objection which at first sight appears, as to frames, dishes, &c., &c., not being made of this size, is fully met by the fact that anything made for 5x4 will really answer the purpose, and we feel assured that from our previous experience of the support we have received from our extensive clientele, we: shall be induced to make every requisite for the Academy plate at no very- distant date. So sure are we of this, that we are already manufacturing plates as well as films of the Academy size and in these days of Parcel post and cheap small parcels conveyance, we experience no difficulty in sending supplies of either to any part of the world. For those who prefer to work a larger size of similar proportions, we supply the Eclipse for pictures, 7i X 5> which we have sold with great success during the past year. 87 & 88, Newman Street, Oxford Street, London, W. 17 In order to meet the wishes of a great number of our customers, we have continued to manufacture the ‘ ‘ Eclipse ” in increasing sizes until we are now making the 8Jx6^ size, embodying all the advantages of the smaller patterns, with the addition of double-action rising front as well as extra arrangement for working within a short range as may required for large figures, &c., &c. or, if preferred, the power of focussing by means of our patent focussing flange, which entails no increase in bulk and gives the same power of adjustment as in an ordinary racking lens, without in any way detracting from its portability and compactness when closed. The “Eclipse” lens being found suitable for any other work requiring a rectilinear lens of high class qualities, particularly for interiors and any dimly lighted subject requiring long exposure, we have added to the “Eclipse” apparatus a folding bottom board, instantly adjustable, which firmly supports the camera either in a vertical or horizontal position, see above, and when not in use takes less room than a double back, we are now making them for all sizes, see page 47.

AUTOMATIC CHANGING BACK. SHEWS PRIZE MEDAL PATENT. ^fSpONSISTING of two boxes sliding one in the other, the outer box taking BASa the place of the double back, being readily fitted to any camera. This receives the plate to be exposed, after which it is rapidly transferred back to the inner case from which it was taken, the two boxes forming part of one box a little larger than the plate contains. The Camera, Feb. i, 1889. The other silver medal has gone to a new form of Changing Box invented by Messrs. Shew. This is a most ingenious contrivance, and one which is sure to meet with the approval of tourist photographers, for in a box which takes up no more space than two double slides there are contained one dozen plates, each one of which can be brought under command of the lens by a most simple movement. Photography, Jan. 17, 1889. J. F. Shew & Co., 88, Newman Street, London. This firm had several novelties of real value. They secured the silver medal with a new changing box, one of the most ingenious things we have ever seen in this direction. It will hold twelve plates, which can be exposed in succession by simply pulling out the slide and returning it, and it is most compact in form and size. The Amateur Photographer, Jan. i&, 1889. Messrs. Shew & Co. had a very excellent exhibit, including one novelty which deservedly earned a silver medal. This is a new form of changing back, which will hold one dozen plates, each one of which is, by a simple move¬ ment, brought to the front for exposure. We venture to think that this back will be found very useful. 20 J. F. SHEW & Co.’s Photographic Stores, SHEWS AUTOMATIC CHANGING BACK.

THE “NIMROD” ENLARGER. fj|HE “ NIMROD ” though manufactured with the same regard for accurate workmanship which characterizes the “ Cantilever,” is a simpler and ®jo> less expensive apparatus cf more limited range, though including most of required sizes and yielding good results within its scope. The centre Wood Block is employed both as the seat for the Condenser and for the Stage. The negative carrier is square, reversing and masking, and as it is placed quite close to the Condensers the full benefit is obtained. The Condensers have been specially made full aperture 5 and 8 inches diameter respectively. The one rod on which the front is mounted is square, lending itself well to fine focussing even in the absence of rack on the objective, by grasping it firmly in one hand, using the thumb as a brake to prevent jerk, by placing it partly on the rod and partly on the outer tube. The lamp is mounted on the axis of the apparatus, with flames flat side to the Condenser, and with a ruby window at the back. The bellows are made of stout tough cloth and are not removable. PRICES.

Hence, for this purpose, it becomes practically the quicker acting Lens. The increased distance also between the Object and Lens tends to better perspective in the resulting picture.

SHEW & Co.’s Photographic Stores, Fac Simile Size of Quarter-plate Lens and Shutters. SHEW’S ECLIPSE LENS AND INSTAN¬ TANEOUS SHUTTER PATENT. fjjf HIS Lens manufactured specially for use in our well-known Eclipse Hand (gj|g) Camera, working at fixed focus, since its introduction by us in 1885, and further improvements in 1887, has met with such universal approval that having been for the last three years urged by our numerous clientele to work the same Lens still larger, we are, after careful study and repeated trials, enabled to produce it of a size to cover 1/1 plate or 8J x 6J, which is now used most successfully for snap-shots at a fixed focus, giving pictures of a size hitherto deemed impossible by this method. We beg to draw particular attention to the fact, that although it has been stated on good authority to be impossible to make a Lens suitable for Hand Camera work of such dimensions, we have at considerable outlay continued our experiments in this direction, encouraged by the fact that such was the universal opinion in 1885, when we first introduced to the world the then unknown system of working at fixed focus (in J-plate), which, although opposed to the prescribed theory of optics, and for some time the subject of much adverse criticism has since, owing to the high class results obtained with this Lens of special and peculiar construction become universally adopted, and Hand or Fixed focus Cameras are now a recognized necessity in the Photographic world, with the result that owing to the great competition Hand or detective Cameras are to be obtained at such prices as to preclude the use of a Lens of any value. Many manufacturers are now making Lenses on similar lines to ours, in small sizes, which we supply at advertised prices to order, but we cannot exchange these when once sent out. We are pleased to be able to state that we have, after long and careful trials succeeded so far that the results we have obtained with our 1-1 plate Eclipse have much exceeded our expectations, and we are willing to send specimens of the work done with it or, when practicable, to lend an apparatus for trial to an intend¬ ing purchaser. The Eclipse is a Rapid Rectilinear of the highest class, possessing great depth of definition combined with remarkable brilliancy and crispness of image; it is sup¬ plied with a revolving diaphragm plate, and revolving on the same axis is the instantaneous shutter of circular form, with aperture of a crescent shape, supplied with a simple and very efficient release; the whole forming a most compact arrangement of Lens, Shutter and Stops complete less in bulk than any Lens alone of similar capacity. 87 & 88, Newman Street, Oxford Street, London, W. 47 The Shatter as usually supplied gives exposures varying from 1/30 to 1/60 of a second, this we find sufficiently rapid for general Hand Camera work, but for special subjects which require greater speed any increase can be obtained by the additional of an extra spring, for which an attachment is provided on the Lens, for time exposures the shutter need only be opened and the Lens used in the ordinary way. This Lens, with the addition of our Patent Focussing Flange, is complete for time exposures, for focussing, as well as for the work for which it was originally designed.

This result is due to the fact of there being only two reflecting surfaces. Architectural subjects are not so satisfactorily rendered when taken with a single as with a double combination, such as the Rapid Paragon, it being impossible to correct single combinations so as to produce straight lines at the margin of the plate. This First Series being composed of a triple combination gives finer pictures than the Second Series, which is formed of two Single Lenses only, it being a recognised fact that a triple or threefold combination produces a considerably flatter field than that consisting of but two. 16 32 64 128 256 / / / / / 16 22-627 32 45 % 255 64 Diam. of Equiv.

S ONSISTS essentially of a clamp formed by a solid gun-metal block A, carry¬ ing a turned steel rod, about a foot long, upon which slides a movable w block E, capable of being fixed in any position by the set screw shown. Through an arm projecting from this sliding piece passes a vice-screw, which, in conjunction with the block A, forms a clamp of very wide range, capable of easy and rapid adjustment to any projecting object, be it a wall, a gate, a chair- back, a tricycle seat or wheel, a window-frame or even a mantelpiece. The sliding block E permits the rough adjustment to be made rapidly, the final clamp¬ ing being done with the screw F. Cast on to the block A is an adjustable hinge B. carrying the upright rod to which the camera plate D is affixed. By reversing the upright in the split boss C, in which it is tightened by the same screw that governs the hinge B, and by suitably adjusting the latter, the axis of the lens may be pointed in an upward, downward, or horizontal direction, or at any intermediate angle. This Instrument is particularly recommended to Travellers and Yachtsmen, as it can be instantly attached to any part of the vessel where the Tripod Stand is not available. No. i.

It is perfectly smooth and silent in action, and will be found par¬ ticularly valuable in developing large plates, which, without some such help, quickly tire the arms of the operator. Development proceeds easily and rapidly, any sized dish can be placed on the Rocker, and the plates safely left while mix¬ ing solutions, etc., etc. The Rocker consists of three fixed and two moving parts—the Table and te Pendulum.

(Only three plates are shown in the engraving so that the arrangement may be clearly seen). S T is admitted by all Photographers the proper and most effectual way to thoroughly cleanse gelatine plates is to place them face downwards. To meet that view this plate washer has been designed. The Washer consists of two principal parts, an outer case or tank and an inner frame or cage, also a plain sheet of metal for a shifting partition. The cage is so arranged that without the partition it will take six plates of the largest size the Plate Washer is intended for, and from ten to twenty smaller size plates, all face downwards. In the Whole-Plate size Washer and the larger sizes, when the partition is used, different sized plates, viz., 6J x 4§, 5x4, 4J x 3! and stereo, etc., may be washed at the same time, the lower edge being always on the projecting ledges allowing the plates to lean against the partition.

EXPOSURE METERS. THE WATKINS' EXPOSURE METER. S HIS instrument—the only one constructed on correct principles—calculates ) the proper exposure for photographic plates under every imaginable con- ®T® dition. It is equally applicable for Landscapes, Shutter Work, Sky Views, Sea Views, Portraits, Interiors, Architecture, Copying Enlarging, Photo-Micrographs. _ This compact little instrument is a combination of a bromide of silver actinometer (most simple in use), a chain pendulum for timing the exposure, and a set of four calculating rings, each carrying a pointer, which, when set to the correct value for each factor, causes a fifth pointer to indicate the correct exposure in seconds or fractions of a second. It is beautifully finished in brass, and measures only 2J inches long, and if inches in diameter. It is not complicated in use, and the average time occupied in testing the light and adjustment of calculator is only 30 seconds. Price, 15/- By Post, 15/3. Rolls of Bromide Paper for refilling, post free, 7d. Also now ready, cloth binding, for the Pocket, price 1/6, for use with above. EXPOSURE NOTES. Containing Instructions, further Information, and suitable Ruled Pages f«r Notes. TYLAR-PICKARD EXPOSURE METER WN using the above, all that is needed is to place the instrument close to the JIL, e y e and point it to the object to be photographed, moving the lever across the scale plate. This lever actuates a valve in such a manner as to allow a varying flood of light to fall upon a lettered screen inside the tube of the instrument. As soon as the letters on this screen become indistinct the instru¬ ment is taken from the eye, and the exposure for any given stop will be at once seen on the right hand side of the lever by referring to the scale plate and leading the exposure shown thereon.

A paper upon the subject from the pen of Mr. Edward A. Golledge, appears in “ The Camera ,” for July, 1890, from which a description of the process is quoted. In order to get the best effect it is necessary that the paper should be printed very deep; in fact, so deep that detail in the shadows is quite lost. Under ordinary circumstances it would appear to be much over-printed. I am of opinion that intensification of negatives will be rendered quite unnecessary if, when printing, the precaution is taken to print through the green or yellow- glass. Of course the time occupied in printing is longer, but to my mind this is no drawback to the process. The after-manipulations are much about the same as with ordinary printing, but when using Scholzig’s Matt Surface Paper, the prints simply require a rinse in one water before placing in the toning bath. I recommend the following toning bath for pure black tone :— Borax .. .. .. .. .. drm. Uranium Nitrate .. .. .. •• 4 S rs- Gold. 3 g rs - Water .. .. .. .. .. .. 24 oz. Of course, if a number of prints are to be toned, more gold should be added, but with the bath above given, I have toned from 2J to 3 dozen whole-plate prints on Scholzig’s matt sfirface paper. It is necessary to replenish the bath with gold if it becomes weak, and the same solution may be used several times, provided gold has been added. The tungstate and phosphate bath, as recommended by Mr. Scholzig, gives fine dark tones on the Matt Surface Paper. The time occupied in toning this paper is but a few minutes. I place the prints into salt and water, and fix m the usual manner. 122 J. F. SHEW & Co.’s Photographic Stores, BROMIDE PAPERS. “ILFORD” BROMIDE PAPER. Rough or Smooth. Rapid or Slow.

Remove from the Soaking Solution, and pin up each Film by the corners to dry spontaneously. A good way to dry these negatives is to pin them by two corners to the edge of a shelf and then to pin the lower corners to a light strip of wood. Any tear drops of the Soaking Solution should be removed with a bit of blotting paper or absorbent cotton. When the negative is thoroughly dry, wipe off the back with a soft cloth. The object oi the Soaking Solution is to prevent the Film from curling when dry. The negative must not be rinsed after the Soaking Solution. Always keep finished negatives flat —do not roll them ut>.

THE LONG RANGE ECLIPSE- Patents Nos. 4,102 and 1x394. AVIN G successfully made our Eclipse Lens of increasing sizes up to gj Jgjlf inches focus, we have been requested to adapt this lens to the J-plate fo gT s sized camera, and have now made the above special model for the purpose, which enables the operator to use the two lenses, the usual mid-angle supplied with the i-plate camera and the latest (9Jin.) lens, which produces on this sized plate a very narrow angle. THE INTERCHANGEABLE. PJSFJ new form °f folding Hand Camera, suitable for the Eclipse or other lenses, carrying-roll holders or double backs for films or for glass, interchange- able, and entirely covered during exposure ; equally suitable for hand or time exposures, and giving good range for focussing work as well as for “fixed focus.” SHEWS PATENT FOCUSSING FLANGE- ?E would draw attention to the exceptional success which has attended our introduction of the above, a simple device which, whilst in no way increasing bulk, gives the means of readily shifting the focus to the several scaled distances for hand work, most in use, and beyond this, of fine focussing between any of the distances scaled, converting the camera in fact into a focussing camera at will, retaining at the same time all the advantages in compactness and simplicity, of the Hand Camera. We are fitting this Flange to any existing cameras. Orders are executed in rotation, but we cannot at present supply in less than 14 days from the receipt of the order.
