March 31, 1937 THE AMATEUR PHOTOGRAPHER ADVERTISEMENTS IX GOING-GOING-GONE ! A day or two may be the difference between being able to choose exactly the camera you want or arriving just too late. The “ once in a lifetime ” opportunity comes to everybody, and, in view of the commencement of the photographic season, the firm of R, G. Lewis is this week offering exceptionally fine value in the way of second-hand apparatus. Who knows ? Perhaps the camera you have been longing for is at last within your reach in the list below. And as for accessories. Well, we have been assured on count¬ less occasions that there is no collection like ours — all modern — all usable. We never accumulate what is vulgarly known as “ junk.” And may we mention our service ? We do not like to harp on this and make our already satisfied customers think to themselves that perhaps we do protest too much, but we are a proselytising lot and simply cannot resist trying to obtain converts to miniature photography. To approach us before the purchase of a new camera ensures sound, unbiased advice and an unsurpassed after-sales service. The novice is taken under our wing and all our experience placed at his disposal. We even like to think sometimes that we have taught really experienced photographers a thing or two. Do give us an opportunity of justifying the claims we make for ourselves.
