Hello from coastal BC!

Recommended Posts

Greetings everyone my name is Graham. I have joined this group to learn about working with certain leather applications. I have a collection of antique cameras and most have the bodies wrapped in leather, and in some of them very old and dried out leather. I have no knowledge of how to properly clean, treat and care for old dried out leather so this is why I am here, to learn from those who have lots of experience. Thank you for letting me join up and I look forward to learning all about leather! The handle I have chosen, Unicum, was the name of a very common camera shutter made by Bausch and Lomb from the late 19th century into the 20th. Many camera manufacturers offered this shutter on their cameras.

Welcome!  Could you post a couple photos showing some of the areas of concern on your camera collection.  It will help others chime in with some help.
