Well-known
Just saw this blog post: http://rizla.wordpress.com/2008/03/15/holding-the-camera/
I know it's tacky but in reading through dozens of 1960s rangefinder manuals (trying to find information about my Minister D and Electro G and the other cameras that are popping up on my local auction site and making my `bid finger' itchy), they are always the section of the manual that makes me pause and laugh. Very cute.
The Minister D manual has a very slick Japanese gangster-type in a suit.
Miss Xwhatsit sews her own dresses and loves reading the manuals too for the same reason -- shes loves looking at the 1960s clothing and fashion.
Got any good ones?
