Re: [Cz-L] Latest on museum from Natalya Shevshencko

Sorry to disppoint you. This does not really reflect the reality during
1940-1941. We were allowed to have cameras but it was very diffcult to buy
films. However, photographic glass plates were available without any
restrictions; those were appropriate only for old-fashioned glass plate
cameras. What we did, as teenagers, was to improvise at home a darkroom in
which we could open our "box cameras" (I had a Kodak-Box 620 camera),
insert one glass plate, get out, take only one picture and then come back to
the darkroom and develop it with very primitive developing stuff and and
fixers.
