KURIBAYASHI-PETRI CAMERAS
by John Baird
This book uses Kuribayashi/Petri company as its central thread, but in reality, it is a fascinating overview of the Japanese camera industry. Petri did not exist in a vacuum, and John Baird had the good sense to present his material in a context which included the other competitive forces and economic conditions that existed. Petri produced a full line of cameras for many years which were the cameras of every man, not just the rich. All camera models are illustrated and described. Detailed charts trace the history of Japanese cameras, Japanese shutters, and other interesting facets of the camera industry that are not available in any other source.
288 pp. 5.5 8.5 in. 170 illustrations. Hardbound. $34.95
