I recently purchased a roll of Verichrome Pan that expired in 1961. I used it in my 1957 Nomad 127. Very excited with the results.

D’you know the big problem with a disguise?
However hard you try, it’s always a self-portrait.

Taken with the Ansco Readyflash
February 2014

“I fell in love with taking pictures, with wandering around finding things. To me it feels like a kind of performance. The picture is a document of that performance.” Alec Soth

I received this Kodak Jr. a gift. I used 120 film on a 620 spool.

The Ansco Readyflash is a simple viewfinder-type camera with a fixed focus lens, fixed aperture and single-speed shutter. Made in 1953, it took 620 film, giving 8 2¼” x 3¼” exposures on a roll. The body is a basic sheet-metal box, with removable lid, and plastic fittings carrying the lens, shutter and viewfinder.
