can't wait
...to get to know you better. My mother-in-law brought this gem to me over the weekend. She is a bit dusty and well worn. But she has completely stolen my heart. She belonged to my husband's late father. The best I can figure, she was born in 1966.
Look at the view finder! I know it will take time to figure out all of her quirks. Time I look forward to taking. As much as I adore my Nikon 3, there is something about being forced to take my time. Set the shot. Wait for the developing. No immediate gratification on his one. God knows I need a bit of that in my life right now.
I will post pictures when I get her cleaned up and figure out how to load the film.

cant wait to see what you do with it. Dad would have been proud of you.
what a beauty~
I can't wait to see what you come up with. Have fun!
That's awesome! My husband collects cameras and has a few that are similar to yours, but we haven't ventured into using the old cameras yet. I'm excited to see what it can do!
I was given a few old cameras from my Grandfather, the old, old type with bellows! I have never actually taken pictures with them.
Can't wait to see what you do with yours.
Oh - that is wonderful! Sometimes magic happens when we're forced to slow down and take our time.
I can't wait to see the images you create with your new treasure! : )
How totally cool!!! I can't wait to see what you do with it (wait, is that some instant gratification I am wanting??? I think it is!) lol

Cool! It looks like she's quite the camera! It'll be interesting to see what turns out. Congrats on the treasure.
what a cool looking camera, almost too good for use. I'd just have it sitting on show!!
If you can't figure it out, you might hit up michelle's husband. I am sure he has one of these in his collection.
I just left that comment on lera's blog accidentally - that's what I get for having three different blogger blogs open at once. Geez.
Ciao for now.
Very nice! What a very special gift.
She is a gem indeed!
