Carlton when he took over the assets of camera maker William H. Walker. It invented and produced the famous "Premo" view camera line. In 1899 it became a participant of an unsuccessful merger of camera companies. The resulting company made losses and was taken over by Kodak in 1903. Kodak let the factory continue the Premo camera line." www.camerapedia.comLargely for the professional photographer, this illustrated and priced catalogue has a wide range of view cameras, including The Carlton, The Universal, The Ideal, The Empire State, The Peerless, The Stereoscopic, The Katch, The Premo, and several miniature roll film cameras.

Seller ID: 53146 Subject: MANUALS & TECHNOLOGY With both undergraduate and graduate degrees in photography with an emphasis in photographic book production, in 1976, it was an easy leap for me to open a book business concerned with all aspects of photography, from the artistic to the technical manuals of the nineteenth century. Having conducted business in Brooklyn Heights, Philadelphia and almost 30 years in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, I returned to the place of my youth, Akron, Ohio, where my extensive inventory may be seen by appointment. -- Andrew Cahan, ABAA, since 1985.
