Product Description:
Argomania provides a comprehensive look at the history and products made by the Argus Camera Company, which was, at one time, the second largest manufacturer of photographic products in the United States, behind only Eastman Kodak, and was largely responsible for the rise and dominance of the 35mm format for "miniature" photography.
The book chronicles the sometimes turbulent history of the company since its inception in 1931 through the present. It also describes and shows virtually every camera or other product made by the company through the years and puts the company's efforts into context with the rest of the photographic industry. Argomania is lavishly illustrated, containing 575 original photographs. It is an important resource for camera collectors everywhere. |
