I'm sure he'll have got his Hasselblad since 1990 but it seems his Leica was obviously important to him if it got a listing in his chronology! best wishes, Jem > ---------- > From: Tina Manley[SMTP:images@InfoAve.Net] > > LUGnuts - > > This discussion has been very interesting and has at least gotten some of > us thinking.
