One's from the late 30s, and the other is - I'll have to check later - but either '43 or 42. It's fascinating looking at the war coverage, and comparing it to modern photo journalism....we've come a long, long way..... -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+bdcolen=earthlink.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+bdcolen=earthlink.net@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Tina Manley Sent: Monday, May 10, 2004 2:40 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] used photo books.

"U.S. Camera - 1943" - I assume it's the annual issue from US Camera magazine - 228 pages of black and white photos, each giving the camera, film, and exposure details for many well-known and not-so-well-known photographers of the time. Everything from Leicas and Rolleiflexes to Speed Graphics and 8x10 view cameras. There are also about 50 pages of ads in the back, all from 1943.
