Hi, not sure if I have ever posted on the forum before, but when I tried to register, i found that I already had previously. The reason I visited today, is to try to confirm the name of a camera shop that used to be in Union Street. If you walked down a Union Street from corporation street, it was on the left hand side, possibly about half way down. It’s really bugging me trying to remember the name. I bought a standard 8 projector from there in the sixties.

HI folks the server that hosts the site completely died including the Hdd's and backups.
Luckily i create an offsite backup once a week! this has now been restored so we have lost a few days posts.
im still fixing things at the moment so bear with me and im still working on all images 90% are fine the others im working on now
we are now using a backup solution
Camera shop, Union St

- Start date
The 1965 Kellys directory, for Union St lists Jerome Ltd, photographers at no 6, and Dixon {Studios) Ltd photographic equipment and materials dealers at no 11. I think Jeromes were not equipment dealers, so it would probably be Dixons.

Thanks very much. Now that I’ve thought about it, I bought both Prinz and Chinnon items from that shop. Both of which I believe were Dixon’s own make. Thanks again.
