HASSELBLAD STORIES
Here an other Hasselblad Camera Story .
The complete camera set , lens , camera and filmback of a 1951 1600F was sold by HASSELBLAD to a photographer in Goteborg .
He did not use the camera very much . His son inherited all photographic equipment and kept it unused on the shelf .
So I , just by luck , got the chance to buy it . The set is in very good condition and fully funtional .
I have taken some images with that camera , but could not find them yet .
The last image is an excerpt of the HASSELBLAD ledger books .
That is a kind of book , where all sales were documented .(No computers at that time) Have a look to line 3 from the top .
There you will find all serial numbers of the lens , camera and back . You can see these numbers also in image 2 .
The company H-Foto obviously bought more cameras , as you can see from the ledger book .
Enjoy the little story .
