The book, 'Argus - Fine American Cameras', a book by Bob Kelly, Ron Norwood, Mike Reitsma and Phil Sterritt of the Argus Collectors group, is available for order.

From the website:
The definitive book on all things Argus -- Cameras from the 1936 Argus A through twenty-first century digital cameras bearing the Argus logo.The products, people and places that made up all its corporate eras, including its pivotal role in World War II defense manufacturing.

The combined fruits of the labors of four people who have researched Argus history for over twenty years. From interviews with many former Argus employees, travels to places where Argus products were made, poring over documents in historical libraries and internet archives, compiling data on features of historical Argus cameras to better understand their evolution,and amassing some of the foremost collections of paper and artifacts, very few stones have been left unturned.

Anything we discover that doesn't make it into the nearly 500 pages of this volume will be added to the 'Errata and Addenda' section of this website.

I have a copy of the book and enjoyed reading it.

Price is $69.95, plus shipping. Questions and orders may be emailed at the website above.
