OLD TOWNE ORANGE.....FOUND SOMETHING!

My friend Julie and I made our way up to Orange Circle yesterday so that I could introduce her to a great place to go antiquing! Julie is a fabulous photographer and we both stumbled on this great twin lens camera by Kodak! I have two of them that I just recently purchased which are DuaFlex II and a DuaFlex III. Great little cameras that came with an external flash like Julie is holding here in the photo. Believe me..... I so wanted this little gem myself! But I will keep looking around to see if I can find one the great vintage brown that Julie got too! Yes, I have camera envy! But not for long! Found one and it is coming home!

MY NEW {BUT OLD} KODAK TOURIST!

Lately, I have been in the mood for acquiring new things that are very old! I guess I am feeling enamored with the look of nostalgic but classy objects! I have acquired old brewery crates from the early 1900'a from NYC that I just recently displayed for props on a wedding dessert table and some old twin lens cameras that I hope to use for a photo shoot for my recently engaged brother! But this I love! My new {but old} Kodak Tourist!
