Camera craft

Photographers' Association of California · 1900 · [San Francisco] · 33 pictures

Camera Craft is a early twentieth-century photography manual issued in 1900 by the Photographers' Association of California and published in San Francisco, written for amateur and working photographers. Its illustrations are black-and-white halftone photographs of cameras and camera parts, showing leather-covered boxes, folding bellows, and twin-lens designs photographed plainly against light backgrounds, useful to a designer wanting period equipment shots with clean, documentary detail.
