New York photo specialty store Foto Care recently went poking around its basement and dug up the following camera treasures.
Recognize any of these models? The Steam Punk-style tubular device is known as "Baby Bertha," and was primarily used for sports photography in the 1940s. It has preset focal points that are changed using the large lever on the side.
Apparently there's a "Big Berta" as well, which Foto Care says it will post photos of soon. Check out the gallery of treasures on Foto Care's Facebook page.
