I was earning exactly a hundred dollars a week. My first camera purchase was financed by cleaning a photo studio, including the toilets, of course. $1.25 / hour. Bought a brand new Mamiya TLR with a couple lenses. Eventually moved up to photo assistant plus cleaning and bought an M3 and then M2. George
