Black And White

In my little town, retired police cars are very popular. There's 3 or 4 of them here. This camera belonged to my late Grandmother Wright and it was passed down to me. It’s a treasured possession to me now, and I treasure each time I get to use it. Since these were released for the first time in 1953, this would be one of the first ones Kodak made.
