[Leica] About Photo Arsenal on eBay

[jshul at comcast.net (Jim Shulman)]

I remember them all from my misspent adolescence.  In those days, about the
only way you could glimpse at lots of neat used equipment was to window shop
along 32nd street.  Bought some of my first 8mm movie equipment at Olden
Camera--remember "Walk Up and Save"?

Jim,

Yes, I remember them.  They were on the "Diamond Street"  right across 
the street from the Jewelry
Exchange, between 5th and 6th avenues.  I did business with them in the 
1950's.

I usually dealt with the stores on 32nd Street.  Olden, Willoughby, Penn 
Camera, and Photoshop.
