March 24, 1937 THE AMATEUR PHOTOGRAPHER ADVERTISEMENTS xi WE ARE A SIGHT . . . in the sense that every amateur photographer resident in, or a visitor to, London, makes a point of calling on us at some time or another, just as ordinary members of the public visit the Tower of London or Madame Tussaud’s. But, more than that, their visits to us are repeated. Photography has always been our hobby — we still get a tremendous kick out of it — that is the secret of our success. Our staff, small in number but highly trained, is thoroughly conversant, by personal experience, with every problem arising out of miniature photography. In this way we are able to offer a unique service of advice and assistance, besides merely selling apparatus, to miniature photographers. USED APPARATUS The following used cameras have been carefully tested and, where necessary, adjusted in our workshop before being offered for resale.
