You think of the old photographic shops.Hardly any item shown in their windows say 20 years ago would be available now.Cine cameras and projectors.8 & 16mm films and all of the apparatus that relates to paper based photographic films.In fact such shops barely exist anymore.I remember going into Wallace Heaton in New Bond Street,with its royal warrant,what a grand shop that was.I would look at the expensive 16mm equipment in the window and wish i could afford it.Bolex equipment in particular was highly regarded.Now it,and the shop ,is all gone.Today it is all digital but maybe not so much fun.I know how much i used to enjoy lacing up my 16mm Bell & Howell with some rare 30s film and showing it in my bedroom.Nowdays just putting a DVD of the same fil;m in the machine isnt quite the same.Thats progress.

Does it still carry the slogan - ‘High over the fence leaps Sunny Jim – Force is the food that raises him’? (!)
