Cameras. I has it.

I wonder if he'd ever used any of the ones he collected?
From the article it sounds like he took a lot of photographs.
Some of the cameras are worth using, but many are thrift store finds. I have a lot of those also, never used them. But at $5 or so, why not have them to display.

for 5$ you can have a thousand cameras all over the house. or .5 of a Leitz Noctilux 50.

I was wondering where all the old Kodaks in Oregon went to... Fife? Who'd have thunk it?

A good bit of the cameras in Oregon seem to have ended up in someone's huge trailer out in the woods here on the south coast... a few months ago I got a message from someone I know telling me this yard sale had a ton of cameras. I drove out to the place, a mile or two up a windy gravel road into the woods, and lo and behold a virtual tarp city of stuff was spread out, some of it in the mud, in the space where a couple of trailers used to be. There were dozens of cameras, plenty of small fixed-lens rangefinders, a gold mine... all virtually ruined by the dampness, mildew and fungus that comes from sitting for probably decades in a rotting trailer. It was truly sad - I bought a boxful of the better ones, but none of the meters work, all the glass is covered in fungus.
